Argentina has slammed the UK's plans to drill for oil in the Falklands, accusing Britain of trying to illegally plunder its hydrocarbon assets and of violating its sovereignty.

The oil field in question is located 220km north of the Falkland Islands and is believed to contain more than 300 million barrels of oil.

The licence for the Sea Lion field is owned by Rockhopper Exploration, a UK-based company.

The Israeli company Navitas Petroleum will be responsible for extracting the oil from the seabed - a process that will involve drilling twenty-three wells.

I wonder how deep the ocean is at that point north of the Falklands? All they need is another well blowing out like has happened in the Gulf of Mexico. ;)
