What is Gulf Oil Pollution Safety Alert 131 about?
The document summarizes a pollution incident where 25 barrels of crude oil were discharged into Gulf of Mexico waters from an unmanned platform during overnight well testing. Two safety devices failed - a valve that was supposed to close did not due to dry o-rings, and an overflow tank lacked a high level sensor. To prevent recurrence, the operator will now only test wells during daylight, use a pipeline to a manned platform, and properly lubricate all safety devices.
