Oil floating on the sea along the coast of Langesund following an oil spill. The 167 metre long cargo ship Full City ran aground at Saastein, just south of the town of Langesund, carrying around 1,000 tons of heavy oil. More than 200 tons was spilt into the sea, polluting some of Norway’s most pristine shores, islands, beaches and bare rock-faces. Soon after the accident, the fight to remove the oil started. Volunteers worked with their hands, removing oil from stones, as larger ships worked to gather the huge oil spills floating in the sea.
