It appears this at the very worst will be nowhere near that of the deep water horizon incident.

However, It solidifies why safety inspections at ALL rigs need to be performed before bans are lifted.

Boats on the scene are not reporting an oil slick so thats good news at least. Something smells fishy here and it ain't the oil rig.
