The icebreaker, which suffered a gash to its hull last week while en route to Shell’s proposed Arctic drill site, may have been damaged by a previously uncharted shoal. The vessel is a crucial element of Shell’s Arctic fleet as it is loaded with a capping stack designed to fit on top of a damaged well in case of a blowout or other emergency. If it’s not ready it would put a crimp in Shell’s plans to start drilling in the Chukchi Sea, northwest of Alaska.Locations:Alaska-Dutch Harbor-North America-Unalaska Island-United States of AmericaDate:11 Jul, 2015Credit:© Mark Meyer / GreenpeaceMaximum size:3000px X 2002pxKeywords:Climate (campaign title)-Coastlines-Day-Drillships-Full length-Harbours-High angle view-KWCI (GPI)-Oceans (campaign title)-Oceans (topography)-Oil drilling-Oil rigs-Outdoors-Save the Arctic (campaign title)-Seas-Shell (commercial business)-Ships-Summer-Water-Wharfs (Docks)Shoot:Shell Oil Equipment in Dutch Harbor in AlaskaShell drilling equipment and support vessels in Dutch Harbor, Alaska. Shell is staging its equipment in preparation of drilling for oil in the Chukchi Sea in the Arctic region of Alaska. The icebreaker Fennica came back to Dutch Harbor after suffering a gash to its hull last week while en route to Shell’s proposed Arctic drill site. The U.S. Coast Guard is investigating what may have been damage caused by striking a previously uncharted shoal.
