Divers identify broken pipeline as source of Gulf oil spill

Talos Energy, the Houston-based company currently paying for the cleanup, said in a statement issued Sunday evening that the busted pipeline does not belong to them.

So far, the growing spill appears to have remained out to sea and has not impacted the Louisiana shoreline. There is not yet any estimate for how much oil was in the water, but recent satellite images reviewed by AP on Saturday appeared to show the slick drifting more than a dozen miles eastward along the Gulf coast.

The Bay Marchand spill is one of dozens of reported environmental hazards state and federal regulators are tracking in Lousiana and the Gulf following the Category 4 hurricane that made landfall at Port Fourchon a week ago. The region is a major production center of the U.S. petrochemical industry.

They are having the same thing in Europe!!! When are we going to ban these oil rigs!?!?!?!

fkt up!

Oil is great for the environment

THE COMPANY THAT OWNS THE PIPELINE SHOULD BE HELD RESPONSIBLE AND BE MADE TO CLEAN UP AND FIX IT ASAP OR FACE HUGE FINES SINCE ALL THEY UNDERSTAND IS MONEY

What company is preforming the work?

'There is not yet any estimate for how much oil was in the water, but satellite images reviewed by AP on Saturday appeared to show the slick drifting more than a dozen miles (more than 19 kilometers) eastward along the Gulf coast'

“ongoing oil spill” 🤔

The oil/gas industry is always bragging about their environmental protection programs. They pay NO consequences for the crappy job they actually do.

Another oil spill in the Golf of Mexico? What else is new?

I was introduced into his platform by a friend I met online Dennismayson7. I thought it was a scam company as well.... But I was moved to try once again with Dennismayson7 I just wanna share this with my people, it was a WIN and i am GREATFUL.🙏🙏🙏🙏 GRATITUDES.

And Biden just signed more oil drilling permits for the Gulf of Mexico. 🥺🤬

See, some societies might be able to recognize this as a sign.

Cool. two vessels. Just two boats.

And this is why we don't want oil pipe lines

How many times does this have to happen before we stop offshore drilling? Ridiculous.
