The Chief Executive Officer of Crogga Limited - which plans to start drilling for gas on Island next year - says he's 'completely committed to moving to a green economy'.
It comes as the company has shared its plans to begin drilling off Maughold Head in 2023.
Crogga was granted a license from the government back in 2018 to undergo the drilling - and commits the company to acquire a 3D seismic survey and drill two appraisal wells.
