Today we saw oil rigs - not drilling, presumably drilled already. One of the crew counted 19. Off the east of the ship, so presumably whichever Balkan state lies there.
Our GReek guide said something odd on Santorini while discussing water, desalination, and energy needs. The Greeks know that there is oil in the Aegean, but there would be problems with Turkey. And they know there is oil in the Ionian, but the oil companies won't drill there.
I thought they drilled anywhere they could.
