There are, at present, hundreds of offshore platforms, drilling for both oil and natural gas. Der er i øjeblikket flere hundrede offshoreplatforme, hvor der bores efter både olie og naturgas. This is something that needs to be kept in mind both when planning shipping routes and when drilling for oil. Det skal man huske, både når der planlægges sejlruter, og når der bores efter olie. During the UN International Water Decade in the 1980s, deep bore wells were drilled in parts of water-starved India. Under FN's internationale vandtiår i 1980'erne blev der boret dybe brønde i dele af det vandhungrende Indien.
