I saw videos of this today on BBC News. Impressive . . . 125,000 cubic metres a day is 4,414,333 cubic feet (a day), or 183,930 cubic feet an hour. (Someone might need to check my conversions).
Satellite photos are way cool, also.

At least it was an Indonesian oil company that is responsible.
That's going to be an expensive mess to fix. If they can.

50 meters on a side, cubed, according to the desktop gizmo I used. I think a labor intensive solution is called for -- making mud bricks and building houses for the poor. Of course, that could result in more housing than is actually needed worldwide...
