Gas production has begun in a new gas field in Morecambe Bay, securing the future of 400 jobs.
The Rhyl gas field, which is 24 miles (39km) off the coast of Barrow, Cumbria, is the first to be brought on stream in the North West for 10 years.
Gas will be produced at Centrica Energy's North Morecambe platform and piped back to Barrow.
The company said the development would secure production at Morecambe Bay well beyond 2020.
