Brent Oilfield in the North Sea
The Maersk owned Maersk Forza, a Subsea Support Vessels (SSV), passes the foundations of Shell's former oil platform Brent Bravo. The installation is located in the Brent oilfield in the UK part of the North Sea. According to Shell’s decommissioning proposals, it will leave behind the remains of four platforms in the Brent oil field. Shell estimates three of those platforms contain 640,000 cubic metres of oily water and 40,000 cubic metres of oily sediment with a total content of more than 11,000 tonnes of oil. The lettering "TOXIC WASTE" was applied by Greenpeace activists during a campaign in October 2019.
In original language:
Brent Ölfeld
Die im Besitz von Maersk befindliche Maersk Forza, ein Unterwasser-Unterstützungsschiff (SSV), passiert die Fundamente der ehemaligen Shell Ölplattform Brent Bravo. Die Anlage befindet sich auf dem Ölfeld Brent im britischen Teil der Nordsee. Nach den Stilllegungsvorschlägen von Shell wird sie die Überreste von vier Plattformen im Brent-Ölfeld zurücklassen. Shell schätzt, dass drei dieser Plattformen 640.000 Kubikmeter ölhaltiges Wasser und 40.000 Kubikmeter ölhaltige Sedimente mit einem Gesamtgehalt von mehr als 11.000 Tonnen Öl enthalten. Den Schriftzug "TOXIC WASTE" haben Greenpeace-Aktivistinnen bei einer Aktion im Oktober 2019 angebracht.

Protect the North Sea: Esperanza Tracking the Fossil Fuel Industry
The Greenpeace ship Esperanza is on its way to a month-long documentation and peaceful protest tour in the North Sea. Teams on board will gather evidence of the extreme industrialization of the region by the oil and gas industry, which has been polluting the ocean and fuelling the climate crisis with a “business as usual” attitude for several decades.
