Export oil and gas: help for UK companies
Guidance for UK companies involved in the oil and gas sector on exporting overseas.
Department for International Trade (DIT) helps the UK oil and gas sector do more business internationally.
DIT helps UK companies:
- increase their presence in overseas markets

We promote opportunities arising from prime contractor鈥檚 supply chains, ideally at pre-bidding stage.
We do this by:
- promoting the industry overseas through our embassies and High Commissions
- developing relationships with the International Oil Companies (IOCs), National Oil Companies (NOCs) and independent oil and gas companies
- working with UK based Tier One contractors to position UK supply chain companies effectively for future export opportunities
- introducing companies to potential partners to enable them to access more challenging markets with local content criteria
