The Chinese government this week announced the Yellow Sea oil spill is all cleaned up in Dalian harbor, off the north coast of Liaoning province in China.
That was fast. So how to clean oil spill fast? Get your hands dirty like the Chinese. BP could learn from it.
Not even two weeks ago, on July 17, a blast hit two oil pipelines and spread an estimated 1,500 tonnes of crude oil (462,000 gallons) into the Yellow Sea.
It’s a minute fraction of the amount of crude that has spilled into the Gulf of Mexico since the BP Deepwater explosion of April 20, with an estimated 414,000–1,186,000 tons — but it’s still significant enough for 8,000 workers and 800 fishing vessels to dive in to clean-up efforts, some literally.
