US coastguard says 5,000 barrels a day of oil are spewing from a well
beneath site of the Deepwater Horizon rig explosion
Five times more oil a day than previously believed is spewing into the
Gulf of Mexico from the blown-out well of the Deepwater Horizon drilling
rig, the US coastguard has said.
Coastguard Rear Admiral Mary Landry said National Oceanic Atmospheric
Administration (NOAA) experts now estimate that 5,000 barrels a day of oil
are spilling into the gulf far more than the previous estimate of 1,000
barrels a day. Robot submarines have so far failed to shut off the flow,
1,500m (5,000ft) below the surface, but the coastguard said a test burn on
an isolated area of the spill was successful.
The revision came after a new leak was discovered and strong winds were
forecast which NOAA said would push the oil towards the US shoreline.
However Doug Suttle, chief operating officer for BP, disputed the new
estimates yesterday, pointing to a diagram that plotted the leaks and
saying he did not believe the amount of oil spilling into the water was
higher than earlier approximations.
Landry stuck to the NOAA estimate and said it was based on aerial surveys,
study of the trajectory of the oil slick and other factors.
Landry added that the US president, Barack Obama, had been briefed on the
revised estimate, and said the government had offered to have the defence
department help contain the spill and protect the US shoreline and
wildlife.
