Six voyages with Clare Francis Narrated by Laurence Olivier

Clare Francis travels into the North Sea with the largest steel oil platform ever built. She follows its trials and dangers in the search for oil. The North Sea is a crucial testing ground for the proper management of our decreasing resources. Above all it is a challenge to human survival in one of the world's harshest environments.

"The film nicely captures the terrible duplicity of the sea as benefactor of mankind and monstrous killer. Yet, perhaps more than ever before, we understand just how vital the sea is to our survival" (Daily Express)
