SY9885 : Wytch Farm Oil Wells
3 km from Arne, Dorset, Great Britain
Wytch Farm Oil Wells
There are many oil wells dotted about around Poole harbour. Generally they are well hidden in the forests and quite difficult to see even when looking down from the hills to the south of Poole harbour. This is part of the Wytch Farm oil drilling operation; one of the largest onshore oil operations in Europe.
