North Sea

The North Sea is a large, shallow body of water located between northeastern Europe and the United Kingdom. It connects to the Atlantic Ocean through narrow passages, making it an important area for shipping, fishing, and energy production. The North Sea is known for its rich oil and natural gas reserves, which are extracted through underwater drilling. It supports diverse marine life and has several important ports along its coastlines. Its strategic location makes it a key region for European trade, industry, and environmental conservation efforts.
