2010 tanker collision
On 23 January 2010, an oil tanker and barge collided in the channel leading to Port Arthur, spilling up to 450,000 gallons of oil into the seaway. The tanker was chartered by ExxonMobil and was bound for Exxon's refinery in Beaumont, Texas.[1]
gollark: Someone wants "rarest egg or hatchling in dragon cave" for a messy 9G gold.
gollark: Does anyone have description-writing advice, also? I eventually want to describe all my dragons, but that will obviously take a while, and it takes me ages to generate ideas.
gollark: On salt infernos: it sounds unrealistic, but if you get enough salt it might undergo gravitational collapse and fuse.
gollark: But Suggestions/Requests is very exciting. Drama round every corner.
gollark: Site Discussion? Mostly quite boring.
