Royal Dutch Shell has been given an approval by the U.S. government to begin limited oil drilling in Alaska’s Chukchi Sea. Shell had been waiting long for the approval, which kept it from tapping Arctic oil. Interior Secretary Ken Salazar highlighted that the U.S. government allow Shell to start only limited oil drilling in Alaska. Shell has informed that Shell’s Noble Discoverer drill ship and vessel as well should start exploring the Arctic oil very soon.
