2. Drilling for oil in
the Mediterranean Sea ?
Drilling for oil in the Mediterranean would be
a threat to environment but at the same time
an opportunity to pay off 1/6 of European debt.

3. Our reasons
France has decided to position itself against the
project of drilling in the Mediterranean because
•
There are risks of oil spillage at the rig and during
international transport by tankers
•
The cost of a rig is too high compared to the profit
made with oil
•
Of the impact of oil
on the sea and its environment

4. Example of risks involved
“Deepwater Horizon” was an American oil driling rig.
On 20 April 2010, an explosion on the rig caused
by a blowout killed 11 crewmen and ignited a
fireball visible from 35 miles (56 km) away. The
resulting fire could not be extinguished and, on 22
April 2010, Deepwater Horizon sank, leaving the
well gushing at the seabed and causing the largest
offshore oil spill in U.S. history.

6. SolutionsWe suggest to :
Build wind turbines in the Mediterranean
Build solar parks in the Mediterranean
Build dams at the mouth of rivers
in order to produce jobs and green energy which will
be sold to partner countries
