What Shell’s latest move says about Arctic drilling myths
The company’s departure is certainly a pause in a new era of Arctic exploration, but it’s not the end.
After seven years of preparation and several billion dollars spent, Shell has decided to abandon its exploration program in the U.S. Arctic “for the foreseeable future.” This follows barely two months’ drilling in the Chukchi Sea at the company’s Burger J well, located 150 miles northwest of Barrow, Alaska. Evaluation of all data revealed “indications” of oil and gas but not enough to justify further activity in today’s low price environment.
The TRUTH will set you FREE.
