Overall a large proportion of increase in operations [...] in the year 2003 you can travel from the airport to Tórshavn via the new tunnel between Vágoy and Streymoy in about 40 minutes.

Islanders treasure the winter spectacle of the aurora borealis. But the source of this [...] 1971. »One of the most important benefits of the oil era, and one often overlooked, is the way it restored confidence in the people of Orkney,« he said. »Until the 1970s, people across the islands were

The first gas was discovered in the North Sea by BP in their West Sole Field in 1965 and two years later Amoco found the first oil in the Arbroath field. It was 10 years before the

So, the next time you are disturbed by loud music from noisy neighbours, you might like to think of BLAST, and [...] and this done by varying the amount of air they release and changing the depth at which they are deployed in the water. However, Professor Ziolkowski?s calculations suggest that the source needs to have [...] below 10 Hz (i.e. ten vibrations a second), and this in turn means that the airguns have to be both deeper in the water, and four or five times the normal size used for exploration. As a result, the equipment
