April 20, 2010 was the day the oceans suffered. Due to the tragic explosion of the British

Petroleum Deepwater Horizon drilling rig in the Gulf of Mexico, 5 million barrels of

crude oil was unleashed into the sea. 53,000 barrels of oil polluted the crystal blue waters

with thick oil that flowed for 87 days. Needless to say, it was the biggest offshore spill in U.S.

history—an industrial disaster for the books. But perhaps one of the more gruelling aspects of

the Deepwater Horizon oil spill was the clean-up. They did not have widespread oil spill cleanup

technology a decade ago. There was a lag in oil spill technology advancement since the 1989

Exxon Valdez disaster. That is why great news comes in the form of new advancements in oil

spill clean-up.
