My - admitted limited understanding - is that they are not keen independence. So, yes, it's us or Norway. Would be somewhat ironic.

Did work in the business for a period in 2013.

It was the West coast that was the secret. Particularly between the hebridean islands. Just hard to get and at and at high pressure.
