Poole Harbour oil spill: Wytch Farm oil leak anniversary drone video

Drone footage shows the shore of Poole Harbour a year on from a pollution incident in the Site of Special Scientific Interest.

About 200 barrels of oily water escaped from a pipeline at Wytch Farm oil field into Poole Harbour on 26 March 2023.

Operator Perenco UK said the clean up had been "successfully concluded" and measures had been put in place to avoid a repeat.

Conservationists have called for an end to oil extraction on the site.
