Poole Bay, Dorset: Oil exploration drilling planned
From BBC News
"An energy firm plans to drill a well more than 1,000m (3,280ft) below the seabed in Poole Bay in a bid to explore oil reserves. Corallian Energy hopes to erect a temporary oil platform later this month before drilling the "appraisal well". Environmentalists have said an accident at the site could "devastate" the coast. But Corallian said "all practicable measures" would be taken to avoid "spill scenarios".
