Mikael Höök comments on Arctic oil drilling
2013-05-16
Mikael Höök, senior lecturer at Global Energy Systems, comments on the question of Arctic oil drilling:
Det är dels till följd av BP-olyckan i Mexikanska golfen för några år sedan men framförallt på grund av lönsamheten i den alternativa skifferoljan i USA. Det säger Mikael Höök, expert när det gäller globala energiresurser vid Uppsala universitet.
– Oljebolagen har börjat kika mot andra regioner, tidigare var Arktis den självklara framtida frontregionen som alla ville mot, men nu har man börjat se att det finns andra alternativ som också börjar bli intressanta. Oljeindustrin är pragmatisk och man går dit där det är enklast att få upp sakerna, säger Mikael Höök, universitetslektor vid Uppsala universitet.
