Gulf of Mexico Oil Spill Case Study by Pratik_Gupta_3369 is a document available to read on EtoBox.

The oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico was one of the largest environmental disasters as a sea floor oil well leaked over 200 million gallons of crude oil over 87 days. The leak was caused by an explosion on the Deepwater Horizon drilling rig that killed 11 workers. The spilled oil spread rapidly across the Gulf due to water currents and threatened wildlife, coastlines, and livelihoods. Efforts were made to contain the spill through booms, skimmers, and dispersants while the leak was stopped permanently by sea
