TABJ Sep 1 - A UK oil exporter which is trying drill into a space near Disko 
Island in West Greenland, has been halted by Greenpeace protesters.
Four protesters have mounted a drilling oil rig owned by Cairn Energy by rigging
themselves from tents in protest of Cairn’s goal to create a new oil
production center.
The Stena Don, the drillship protestors boarded, has been drilling the well
since June.
Morten Nielsen, deputy chief of police in Greenland told Reuters, "Like any
criminal, they can be expected to arrested and prosecuted."
With the recent BP oil spill in effect, The Esperanza, Greenpeace’s ship
has been nearby planning the execution of their protest against Cairn
Energy’s oil activities for over a week.
