Production has stopped aboard the Hibernia oil platform off the coast of St. John’s after an estimated 75 barrels, or 12,000 litres, of oil spilled from a storage cell into the water.
An oil sheen was spotted Wednesday, and the company said in a news release that the spill was an “isolated activity.”
The mixture of oil and water was discharged from one of the six storage cells, which contain oil and water and are always full, on the platform, said Scott Sandlin, president of Hibernia Management and Development Company (HMDC).
