lpv:translated text	"Almost five million barrels of oil leaked into the waters of the Gulf of Mexico between April and September 2010 following the explosion on the Deepwater Horizon oil platform, seriously damaging both the economy and the ecosystem of the region. In total, more than 400 species – whales, dolphins, manatees, herons, egrets, etc. – were endangered. Since the European Union has many oil platforms – there are more than 500 in the North Sea – everything must be done, at European level, to avoid such a catastrophe in our territory. By voting in favour of this resolution, I am calling for strict European rules to be developed for the prevention of accidents on oil platforms and for legislation to ensure that uniformly high safety standards apply across all European Union oil platforms and drilling operations, from the Atlantic Margin to the Black Sea. Furthermore, I welcome the Commission’s decision regarding a ‘stress test’ on oil drillings in EU waters."@en1
