4.95e6 bbl ( 41 L/bbl) = 203 million liters. Your only reference for scale can't be just net product, absolute numbers seem to more accurately approximate the scale of damage.
Do your numbers include pipeline and other small but continuous sources of loss?
- cr1895 10y agoAs I said, crude, so I just grabbed some numbers I found quickly to illustrate "a lot." Here's where the 2010 (I notice a typo now in my original post, it's not 2011) comes from: http://ops.fhwa.dot.gov/Freight/freight_analysis/nat_freight_stats/docs/13factsfigures/table5_18.htm http://ops.fhwa.dot.gov/Freight/freight_analysis/nat_freight... That includes spills from vessels, facilities, pipelines, and other unknown sources. Regardless, the spill due to Deepwater Horizon was so massive compared to more typical years. Also, it's 786,987,110 liters (there are ~159 liters in an oil barrel).
