Deepwater Horizon drifts south and comes ashore. Just a hunch.

I don’t believe subs burn oil so heavy it won’t float on the surface.

The only oil I know of in that area that’s so heavy it takes special cracking plants to process comes from Venezuela.

Crude oil seeps up from the earth. Drill for it near the seepage area and harvest the profit.

Maybe a crack in the ocean floor that is releasing the subterranean oil lying off the coast.

My previous post I was addressing the statement in the article the oil is so heavy it won’t float on the surface, that it floats under the surface. That to me was a clue it was Venezuelan oil.

I seem to remember a few years ago about an oil rig collapsing into the sea. Related to that?

That seems a good hunch. By looks of the article a concerted effort is in play to determine the source. I have no idea the rate of travel for subterranean emissions.

Oil + saltwater = tar. If it's fresh and shiny it comes from nearby. If it's solid in comes from further out. Neither one floats.
Texas Parks and Wildlife has a job where the guy drives down the beach collecting samples. (It's one of my dream jobs.)
