Protest against First Arctic Oil Shipment in Rotterdam

Greenpeace activists aboard inflatables paint ‘No Arctic Oil’ on the side of the Mikhail Ulyanov oil tanker. They are protesting against the first shipment of Arctic oil in the port of Rotterdam. The Mikhail Ulyanov tanker is transporting oil from the Gazprom drilling platform Prirazlomnaya to Rotterdam harbour. The platform was the scene of a high profile protest in September 2013, which led to the imprisonment of the 28 Greenpeace activists and two freelance journalists.
