What’s the difference in offshore and nearshore oil drilling?

Answer #1

I believe “near shore” drilling is when we drill on land near the shore. “Off shore” drilling is when we drill in the ocean.

Answer #2

No, near shore drilling occurs ‘near the shore’ in the sea.

Answer #3

Well offshore would be out at sea somewhere, and near shore would be closer to the mainland.
