Environmental effects of the Deepwater Horizon oil spill: A review.

Deepwater Horizon 's oil spill leads to ecosystem - level damage in the northern part of the Gulf of Mexico. Large amounts of oil will diffuse to a depth of 1100-1300 meters and will contaminate and affect the deep-sea habitat. Factors such as biodegradation of petroleum, ocean current, countermeasures (dispersants, combustion) reduce coastal oil pollution. However, over 2,100 km of coastline and many coastal habitats were affected. Although the worst case impact scenario has not been achieved, the study showed that oil caused a wide range of biological effects. Biomarkers of individual organisms have more information on oil stress than population index and community index. Salt wetlands and seabird populations have suffered serious damage, but they are also very strong against oil pollution. In monitoring, pollution by fish and shellfish was rare. Several influences, such as influence on the seaweed community, have not been sufficiently studied. There is still concern about the long-term impact of large fish, deep-sea coral, sea turtle, whale. These species and their habitats should continue to draw attention for several years (monitoring and research).

Like Alaska Exx Valdes in 1989 and BP Deep Water Horizon in the Gulf of Mexico in 2010, a large amount of oil spills brought catastrophic environmental influences, but most media has penetrated the ecosystem. Actually, the oil from the car is leaking. Not only airplanes and boats, but also illegal dumping. Sand and chemicals remain in the cracks of the rock, causing groundwater contamination and possibly unstable bedrock. Currently, scientists are worried that the earthquake in the Midwest region that has never experienced an earthquake is the result of wastewater from natural gas crushing work.

On April 20, 2010, the deep sea horizon of the Macondo Prospect oil drilling equipment in the Gulf of Mexico exploded and settled, and 11 workers died at Deepwater Horizon, the biggest oil spill accident occurred in the offshore oil history Did. Four million barrels of oil was discharged from a damaged Macondo well before the final cap on July 15, 2010, but it was finally restricted on July 15, 2010. On 15th December 2010, the United States filed a complaint against BP's exploration and production in the district court. Several other defendants are claimed to be responsible for the outflow
