REPORT DATE: 08-03-2022 REPORT TIME: 0132 UTC REGION: GULF OF MEXICO SUB REGION: N/A AREA/BLOCK: SHIP SHOAL 175 IMAGE DATE: 08-03-2022 IMAGE TIME: 0003 UTC DATA SOURCE: RADARSAT2 MODE: ScanSAR Narrow VV RESOLUTION: 25 meter LOCATION: 28°38'15" N/91°18'25" W AREA: 1.11 square kilometers CONFIDENCE: High REMARKS: Possible, unconfirmed oil was observed in satellite imagery. A linear anomaly was observed 75 nautical miles Southwest of New Houma, Louisiana. Spanning a length of 1.9 nautical miles and a rough width of 0.5 nautical miles, the potential slick was seen in the vicinity of an active oil facility. The potential slick had strong contrast with the surrounding water and well defined edges. In addition to being near several oil facilities, NRC #1343291 had previously reported a slick in close vicinity to this anomaly. Winds at the time were coming from a Southeastern direction at around 10kts. Due to the collaborating data between the imagery and NRC, the Confidence for this report is High.
