The Falklands competence benefaction a subsequent challenge. The Falkland Islands have been an archipelago in a South Atlantic Ocean. The archipelago consists of East Falkland, West Falkland and 776 obtuse islands. The capital, Stanley, is upon East Falkland. It is an internally self-governing British Overseas Territory, with a United Kingdom obliged for counterclaim as good as unfamiliar affairs. The Falkland Islands have been located upon a projection of a Patagonian continental shelf about 250 nautical miles (288 mi; 463 km) from a Patagonia seashore as good as somewhat to a north of a southerly tip of Cape Horn and of a undersea extension, a Scotia Arc. In very old geological time this shelf was partial of Gondwana, which around 400 million years ago pennyless from what is right away Africa as good as drifted westwards relations to Africa. The Falklands has a sum land area is 4,700 block miles as good as a coastline estimated during 800 miles (1288 km). The islands have been heavily indented by sounds as good as fjords as good as ! have most healthy harbours. The dual categorical islands have been distant by a Falkland Sound which averages twelve miles (20 km) in width. Much of a northern partial of a receptive to advice which is transparent H2O approaches 40 metres (22 fathoms) in depth, yet a southern part, which has most prosaic islands as good as a little shoals has a array of channels which have been most deeper. Both West Falkland as good as a northern partial of East Falkland have towering ranges that have been underlaid with Palaeozoic rock, which, as a outcome of delegate forces compared with continental drift are during 120° to any other. The top indicate of a islands is Mount Usborne, 705 metres (2,313 ft) upon East Falkland, whilst Mount Adam on West Falkland is usually 5 metres (16 ft) lower. The southern partial of East Falkland, a Lafonia Peninsula, which is continuous to a rest of a island by a 4 km slight isthmus, is separate to a rest of a island. Most of Lafonia is a prosaic solid underlain by younger Mesozoic rock, yet in a north west is Permian rock which identical to which of tools of Ecca Pass in South Africa. The islands explain a territorial sea of twelve nautical miles (13.8 mi; 22.2 km) as good as an Exclusive Economic Zone of 200 nautical miles (230.2 mi; 370.4 km), which has been a source of feud with Argentina.A 1995 agreement in between a UK as good as Argen! tina had set a conditions for exploitation offshore resources together with oil pot as geological surveys had shown there competence be up to 60 billion barrels (9.5 billion cubic metres) of oil underneath a sea bed surrounding a islands (see Simon Harding's letter upon oil as good as gas pot in South America in this series). However, in 2007 Argentina unilaterally withdrew from a agreement. In response, Falklands Oil as good as Gas Limited sealed an agreement creatively with BHP Billiton to examine a intensity exploitation of oil reserves. Climatic conditions of a southern seas ( see Simon Harding's essays upon a Ocean in this series) meant which exploitation will be a formidable task, yet economically viable, as good as a stability government brawl with Argentina is hampering progress. In Feb 2010, exploratory training for oil was started by Desire Petroleum yet a formula from a initial exam good were disappointing. Two months later, upon 6 May 2010, Rockhopper Exploratio! n announced which "it competence have struck oil".
