This anomaly is unconfirmed as oil. The anomaly was approximately 5.57 nm oriented SE-NW and approximately 1.82 nm in width. There was an oil facility within the vicinity of the anomaly and no known natural seeps. The anomaly had a silver/white shimmer center which is a characteristic of possbile thicker oil. Winds near the time of the image were coming from the SE between 5-10 kts which aligned well with the orientation of the anomaly. UNCERTAINTIES: The full extent of the anomaly was unknown due to cloud coverage in the vicinity.
