Oil giant Shell, in its 3Q 2013 announcement, revealed plans to continue its exploration program in the Chukchi sea, offshore Alaska. The company said it expects to submit an updated Exploration Plan in the coming weeks, which is required for Shell to keep options open to proceed in the coming year.
“ Shell did the only thing it could do—suspend Arctic drilling and halt operations for oil exploration this summer. Whether it was the Kulluk’s grounding, the problems both drilling operations had with Arctic weather and ice, or the total failure of their oil spill containment system, Shell’s drilling effort last summer demonstrated with vivid clarity that the oil industry is not ready to drill safely in the Arctic Ocean.
