The Exchange: A New Account of Shell's Arctic Exploits
Wednesday, January 21 2015
It's been two years since Shell Oil attempted to drill for oil in Arctic waters and lost one of its rigs in a high-profile crash outside Kodiak. The wreck of the Kulluk set off a string of investigations, threatening to upend Shell's drilling program.
Journalist McKenzie Funk tells that story in a new eBook, "Of Ice and Men." In this segment, Funk discusses how Shell managed the fallout -- and whether the company will be back to the Arctic any time soon.
