REPORT DATE: 08-07-2023 REPORT TIME: 2320 UTC REGION: ATLANTIC SUB REGION: MID ATLANTIC U.S. AREA/BLOCK: North Atlantic 7004 IMAGE DATE: 08-07-2023 IMAGE TIME: 1536 UTC DATA SOURCE: SENTINEL2A MODE: Multispectral RESOLUTION: 10 meter LOCATION: 40°06'02" N/69°55'03" W AREA: 0.01 square kilometers CONFIDENCE: High REPORT MAP/GIS FILES: https://www.ospo.noaa.gov/Products/ocean/marinepollution/ REMARKS: Possible oil was observed in satellite imagery. This anomaly is unconfirmed as oil. The anomaly appeared to emanate from the known repeat leak source shipwreck Wreck 1487. It extended to the northwest of the source. The oil slick contrasted against the ocean background and was approximately 0.37 nautical miles long and from 0.01 to 0.02 nm wide. Winds near the time of the image were coming from the southeast at 6 knots and aligned with the orientation of the anomaly. UNCERTAINTIES: Clouds may have prevented the full extent of the anomaly from being visible. Because this point source has leaked repeatedly in the past, this report has high confidence.
