louisiana oil rig explosion
DownloadSupport vessels surround the drill ship Discoverer Enterprise as it burns off gas brought up from the cap placed over the damaged well, also some oil is reportedly being pumped up to the ship from the damaged well head in the Gulf of Mexico near the coast of Louisiana, U.S., on Saturday, June 5, 2010. The biggest oil spill in U.S. history, which began when BP Plc's Deepwater Horizon rig exploded on April 20, has soiled about 140 miles (225 kilometers) of coastline, halted new exploratory deep-water drilling in the Gulf and shut down a third of its fishing areas.
