Oil and Deadly Gas Spewing From the Seafloor (BP)
The Examiner.com is confirming that a sea floor oil leak several miles away from Deepwater Horizon's damaged blowout preventer, owned by BP plc (NYSE: BP), is now spewing oil and deadly methane gas into the Gulf of Mexico.
It is unclear whether this is due to the recent attempt to cap the well, which has been reasonably successful up until today when it was reported that seepage was occurring in several areas.
While the live BP video feed has been focused on the BOP, some oil industry experts have suggested that the leak being reported today has been played down because it has the potential to be much larger and much more difficult to stem.
