Equinor Renews Aberdeen Science Centre Sponsorship as North Sea Drilling Looms
Aberdeen Science Centre renewed its one-year sponsorship with Equinor, extending a seven-year partnership that funds children’s science exhibits and learning programmes across North East Scotland. The move comes as Jackdaw and Rosebank drilling is advanced amid UK heatwaves and wildfires scientists link to climate change, with Oxfam estimating the projects’ emissions could drive over 65,000 heat deaths; campaigners warn the sponsorship may dilute educational integrity.
