North Sea Oil

North Sea oil refers to the petroleum extracted from oil reserves beneath the seabed of the North Sea, located between the United Kingdom, Norway, Denmark, Germany, and the Netherlands. Developed mainly from the 1960s onward, it has become a significant source of crude oil and natural gas for Europe. The industry involves drilling platforms, subsea pipelines, and sophisticated techniques to access and produce the hydrocarbons safely and efficiently. North Sea oil has played a crucial role in energy supply, economic growth, and job creation for the involved countries, while also prompting ongoing discussions about environmental impact and sustainable energy alternatives.
