REPORT DATE: 09-21-2020 REPORT TIME: 0300 UTC REGION: GULF OF MEXICO SUB REGION: N/A AREA/BLOCK: PULLEY RIDGE 949 IMAGE DATE: 09-20-2020 IMAGE TIME: 1559 UTC DATA SOURCE: SENTINEL2A MODE: Multispectral RESOLUTION: 10 meter LOCATION: 25°01'22" N/82°45'22" W AREA: 1.74 square kilometers CONFIDENCE: High REMARKS: Possible oil was observed in satellite imagery. This anomaly is unconfirmed as oil. The narrow anomaly was 7nm long, had good contrast with the surroundings and had feathtering. It was connected to the repeat leak source Cudahy shipwreck at the northern part. The wind at the time was from NW at 5kt and the currents were to the SW at 0.4kt, which explained the NE-SW oritentation of the anomaly. UNCERTAINTIES: Given the repeat leak nature of the source and the feathering observed in the anomaly, we had high confidence this was oil. There were some darker stringy features in the area where were likely related to vegetation.
