China Says Its Massive Oil Rigs In North Sea Are ‘Strategic Weapons’

China is now the largest oil operator in the North Sea thanks in part to huge tax breaks by Britain, despite the communist country claiming the operations are “strategic weapons.”
The country’s oil expansion in the area means that Britain dolled out nearly $2.6 billion in tax breaks to one of China’s communist-run oil company, according to a report Tuesday by The Times.
The China National Offshore Oil Corporation (CNOOC) operates two of the North Sea’s biggest oilfields. One CNOOC-owned company, Nexen, has produced 200,000 barrels a day in the area.

The UK government tax cuts for oil production allowed China to take advantage of a huge reduction in taxes, which were reduced from $3.2 billion in 2014 and a tax credit of $475 million in 2015. Britain’s Chancellor of the Exchequer George Osborne cut the overall tax bill for oil producers in the area from 50 to 40 per cent.
