REPORT DATE: 11-05-2023 REPORT TIME: 2249 UTC REGION: ATLANTIC SUB REGION: MID ATLANTIC U.S. AREA/BLOCK: NORTH ATLANTIC 7004 IMAGE DATE: 11-05-2023 IMAGE TIME: 1535 UTC DATA SOURCE: SENTINEL2A MODE: Multispectral RESOLUTION: 10 meter LOCATION: 40°06'01" N/69°55'16" W AREA: 0.17 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 potential oil slick was extending NW from the known repeat leak source, Wreck 1487. The slick was approximately 3.2nm in length, was up to 0.04nm in width, had strong contrast with the surrounding water, and had a clear metallic sheen. As previously reported in both NRC #1383435 and NRC #1383489, similar anomalies have been observed in the same area over the past two days. Winds at the time were blowing from a northerly direction at 5kts. Due to both the repeat nature of the source and previous NRC reporting in the area, Confidence for this report is High. UNCERTAINTIES: None. If you would like to share any feedback about this report or have questions, please contact the operational analyst at (301) 683-1403 or send to oceanmap@noaa.gov.
