Shell begynder olieboring i Arktis

USA har givet Shell grønt lys til at begynde at bore efter olie og gas i Det Arktiske Ocean mellem Alaska og Sibirien. De amerikanske myndigheder, som har givet tilladelsen, siger dog, at efterforskningsaktiviteterne skal leve op til omfattende sikkerhedsstandarder.

”Tilladelsen er en vigtig milepæl og er et signal om, at myndighederne har tillid til vores plan. Men før, at driften kan begynde denne sommer, er det nødvendigt, at de resterende af vores tilladelser bliver givet i tide”, siger Curtis Smith, talsperson for Shell.

Shell har planer om at bore op til seks brønde ud for Wainwright, Alaska, og samtidig vil Shell have to skibe i området, som vil forlade området efter endt boresæson.

Tilladelsen er givet på trods af kraftige protester fra miljøorganisationer, der frygter, at aktiviteterne vil gå ud over dyrelivet i området.

Det vurderes, at offshore oliereserverne i det arktiske område udgør 26 milliarder tønder olie.
