Why is it difficult to clean up the Gulf of Mexico's oil spill?

Oil spills are difficult to clean up in general. If oil spills from a tanker, the most oil than can go into the water body is the volume of oil in a tanker. However in this case, the well is producing approximately 5,000 barrels of oil per day (210,000 gallons). So, even mobilizing everything available to control the spill, oil booms, skimmers, use of dispersants, controlled burns, more oil keeps leaving the well. The large canopy that they are preparing to put over the well is not the final solution, but it should reduce the rate of oil that is entering the gulf waters. It should mitigate the damage. It is necessary to kill the blown out well, and BP is in the process of drilling two relief wells.


What ia a fpso i know it is rig .i would like to know the full name of fpso?

FPSO is an acronym for Floating Production, Storage, Offtake (or Offload). An FPSO is typically a big ship used in the oil industry in deepwater producing oil fields. The wells are at the seabed and flow back to the FPSO. The ship is moored in place and contains the production equipment used to process the oil. Once processed, the oil is stored in the hull of the FPSO. Once there is enough oil in stored in the FPSO, a tanker will pull near the FPSO and the oil will be pumped from the FPSO to the tanker.
