Shell has started its drilling operations in the Arctic and the Bureau of Safety and Environmental Enforcement (BSEE) is keeping very close tabs on their activities.
BSEE Inspectors arrived in the Chukchi Sea to ensure the oil major is in compliance with federal regulations and safety standards. The BSEE will oversee Shell’s drilling operations 24/7 in perpetuity. Two inspectors are onsite at the drill sites. One is onboard the Polar Pioneer, a semi-submersible drilling unit, at Burger J. The other is with the Noble Discoverer, a drillship, at Burger V.
Shell’s Arctic drilling operations were approved on July 22, but they included restrictions. BSEE’s primary focus is that the two rigs do not drill simultaneously. While the requirement was not to have operations with 15 miles of each other due to walruses in the area. The Shell rigs are actually only nine miles thus the inspectors oversight.
Additionally, Shell is not permitted to drill into oil-bearing zones until the capping stack is on-site and deployable within 24 hours. Delivery of Shell’s capping stack was delayed because of damage to the M/V Fennica on July 3. MarEx covered the accident in an article you can read here. The capping stack is currently in transit to Chukchi aboard the Fennica.
Shell will be permitted to submit an application to modify these restrictions upon receipt of its capping stack.
BSEE was established in 2011 to replace the Minerals Management Service (MMS) because of the lack of oversight prior to the Deepwater Horizon explosion and subsequent oil spill in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico in 2010.

Royal Dutch Shell conspired directly with Hitler, financed the Nazi Party, was anti-Semitic and sold out its own Dutch Jewish employees to the Nazis. Shell had a close relationship with the Nazis during and after the reign of Sir Henri Deterding, an ardent Nazi, and the founder and decades long leader of the Royal Dutch Shell Group. His burial ceremony, which had all the trappings of a state funeral, was held at his private estate in Mecklenburg, Germany. The spectacle (photographs below) included a funeral procession led by a horse drawn funeral hearse with senior Nazis officials and senior Royal Dutch Shell directors in attendance, Nazi salutes at the graveside, swastika banners on display and wreaths and personal tributes from Adolf Hitler and Reichsmarschall, Hermann Goring. Deterding was an honored associate and supporter of Hitler and a personal friend of Goring.
Deterding was the guest of Hitler during a four day summit meeting at Berchtesgaden. Sir Henri and Hitler both had ambitions on Russian oil fields. Only an honored personal guest would be rewarded with a private four day meeting at Hitler’s mountain top retreat.
