The rig, designed for salt domes and hydrates, arrived in Green Canyon in 2010 and is now in Mississippi Canyon according to Wings of Care photos. Or were you saying it arrived in Mississippi Canyon in 2010 and that is where it has remained the whole time and the info that it was in Green Canyon was wrong? I know it can all be so confusing.

Ed Markey, D-Mass., helped lead the original investigation of BP after the Deepwater Horizon exploded, and says it’s deja vu: BP is not turning over videos and information requested by Congress. “The concern we probably all share is that this does not appear to be from a previously existing or at least previously documented natural seep, and therefore if this is not still residual oil from leaking hardware after 30+ months, then is it coming from some new cracks caused by the Deepwater Horizon explosion?” (VIDEO) 1.

Anonymous Coward User ID: 3664844 United States 12/14/2012 12:25 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | The Maritime Executive BP Responds to Allegations of Possible Oil Still Seeping From Deepwater Horizon Site Thursday, December 13, 2012 Fourth, CBS’ characterization that this is a “little-known subsea mission,” which suggests that this work is being carried out in secret, coupled with language such as “CBS News has learned,” is misleading and sensationalizes facts that are widely available to the public. The Coast Guard announced the current investigation in a press release dated November 23, 2012. Similarly, the Coast Guard and BP announced prior ROV surveys and their results in multiple press releases. The reality is that numerous media outlets have been following the story since mid-September, when BP first reported the sheen to the National Response Center. Finally, in addition to its press releases, the Coast Guard has posted video clips of subsea surveys at restorethegulf.gov. These clips come from hundreds of hours of video provided to the Coast Guard by BP. [link to www.maritime-executive.com] Original Report: A new oil sheen was spotted and traced back to the Macondo well, which is underneath the Deepwater Horizon rig, this September. BP later confirmed that the leaks were plugged after a remote operation in October, but a non-profit environmental group has since documented slicks and oil sheens. They vary in size and shape according to the group’s aerial videos and satellite photos. |
