This anomaly is unconfirmed as oil. The anomaly was linear and jagged in shape and it extended approximately 8.2 NMI west from an oil facility and was measured 0.12 NMI wide as its average width distance. The anomaly stood out of place and showed a dark contrast against ocean background. The winds near the time of the image were out of the SE around 15 knots. UNCERTAINTIES:There are no uncertainties since the anomaly stood out of place and was connected to a point source.
