    Wow, what a coincidence! An oil spill of about 400 tons of crude oil occurred recently in Singapore, S.E. Asia - June 2024 and it was the 1st time the oil slick wasn't able to be contained fast enough, spreading and was washed ashore, staining the small city-state's coastlines and seashores. What horrendous environmental disasters!

    Why did it take 86 days to plug up the oil spill.
    Come on people, we are better than this. Its soul-crushing, really.

      for the same reason(s) why our 2 week lockdown lasted for more than 120 weeks. incompetent reactions due to unpreparedness, gov’t red tape & the US Dollar.

      It was deeper than anything the companies had prepared for and because the BP employee in charge refused to enable the built in cutoff when the blowout happened the pipe was very jagged. The QA manager should be in prison.

    I remember going to these beaches for a school field trip and seeing all the washed up dead catfish on the beach. I’ll never forget it. At the time I had no idea it was related to this until years later and I watched the movie. It was unbelievable

    How about a pump with a filtering system that can draw the sea water in an and trap the oil, instead of just letting the oil settle on the bottom, more must be done,

      They were more than likely cremated by the fire and washed into the ocean when it sunk so there wouldn’t be anything to look for.
