WASHINGTON, April 17, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- April 20 marks the 15 th anniversary of the Deepwater Horizon disaster, which remains the worst oil spill in U.S. history. An analysis released by Oceana shows that the destructive legacy of this disaster is still felt by people, wildlife, and coastal and ocean habitats today. Eleven people were tragically killed in the rig explosion that caused one of the most damaging environmental catastrophes the United States has ever seen. Oil gushed from the seafloor for 87 days, ultimately spewing 134 million gallons into the Gulf of Mexico. Toxic sludge washed up on 1,300 miles of shoreline, from Texas to Florida, oiling beaches and wetlands and killing tens of thousands of birds, sea turtles, and dolphins, among other marine life. Key findings from Oceana's analysis of recent research include: The deep-sea footprint of the oil spill covered an area almost nine times greater than previously reported. The spill spread over 1,105 square mile
