Causes of spills
Article Abstract:
Oil spills often result from uncapped oil wells, rig blowouts on land and offshore, leaking pipelines and storage tanks and punctured oil tankers. Vast amounts of petroleum wastes from municipal and industrial runoff, and the dumping of petroleum-contaminated waste during maritime shipping operations and atmospheric release of petroleum also account for sources of environmental pollution.
