Greenland, 4 June 2011 – Eighteen Greenpeace activists have scaled a controversial Arctic oil rig 180km off the Greenland coast.

Greenland, Thursday, 2 June 2011 – The oil company behind plans for dangerous deep water drilling in the Arctic and whose rig was occupied by activists for the last four days have filed legal papers against Greenpeace, claiming delays in drilling could cost the company up to USD4 million a day.

Edinburgh-based Cairn Energy is seeking an injunction and fines of 2 million Euros for every further day the campaigners succeed in stopping drilling. The claim will be heard in a Dutch court on Monday.
