In search of Fossil fuels, humans take to the sea.
They build a platform in the sea, a mobile island if you will, and from there, they start drilling down in the sea floor, until they reach the oil bubble. This oil bubble gets emptied and the humans leave with their oil and their island.
In offshore drilling, rigs mine oil from under the ocean floor. The oil is then carried to the surface via large pipes, so that it can be shipped away and refined into petroleum products.

Is it safe to continue off shore drilling?
There are always inherent dangers in any industrial operation. If we are looking for zero risk, no one would be able to drive to work or even walk. The real issue is if there is any logical reason to slow down off shore drilling and create the issues of higher costs of fuel and less ability to feed and allow transportation on our planet. With every action, there is a reaction. If we fail to allow drilling off our shore by America, other countries will do so. China is currently drilling where we have banned our companies from drilling. This has caused higher fuel prices at home and more expensive food costs. It also increases the risk of a leak as China does not have the same safety standards we impose. We simply have no reason to not drill as the risk of not drilling far exceeds the risks of drilling.
