BP Has Built An Artificial Island

BP Has Built An Artificial Island To Get Around Offshore Drilling Ban In Alaska:

BP plans to begin drilling two miles under the sea just miles away from a delicate wildlife reserve in Alaska. The company will get around the deep-water moratorium by constructing an artificial island -- 31 acres of gravel -- and registering as an onshore rig. Not exactly the safest operation, reports Rolling Stone: Ref. Source 3

Island Artificial Built BP

I will be waiting to see this have something go wrong and it to also spill oil into the ocean. I do not trust BP with their ways of cutting costs and finding ways to do something that should not be done.
