REPORT DATE: 05-29-2022 REPORT TIME: 0500 UTC REGION: GULF OF MEXICO SUB REGION: N/A AREA/BLOCK: TRINITY BAY 22-23A IMAGE DATE: 05-28-2022 IMAGE TIME: 1648 UTC DATA SOURCE: SENTINEL2A MODE: Multispectral RESOLUTION: 10 meter LOCATION: 29°44'46" N/94°45'05" W AREA: 0.79 square kilometers CONFIDENCE: High REMARKS: Possible, unconfirmed oil was observed in satellite imagery. The possible oil appeared to emanate north and westward from an oil facility in Trinity Bay in Texas. The oil measured approximately 3.3 nmi in length and up to 0.12 nmi in width. It appeared dark against its background with silvery and milky white coloring through the middle of the sheen suggesting areas of thicker oil, and had sharp, distinct edges. Winds at the time of the image were from the S at around 10 kts at nearby Galveston. This possible oil was likely associated with NRC report #1337246 (an MPSR from an image 24 hours previously) and NRC report #1337231 (a report of an observed sheen) at the same location. UNCERTAINTIES: None.
