We shouldnt view this as a oneoff event or a freak accident. There are thousands of oil and gas structures in the gulf, including riggs, platforms wells, power cables and thousands and thousands of miles of pipeline. All posing environmental and safety risks. Some of this infrastructure is active and some is abandoned.
