It depends on:
* the amount spilled * the type of oil spilled (light or thick) * the characteristics of the soil (imperious or absorbant) * soil temperature * presence/absence of precipitation * soil cover (plants) * soil topography (flat, sloped, channelled)
the current of the water
very slow like malases
There was a really bad oil spill in Gulf shores and it spread and got worse
Oil is not spread through air .

the last oil spill was the oil spill in the Gulf Of Mexico
About 8 months if no one did anything about it
The resulting oil slick covers a surface area of at least 2,500 square miles.
When you squirt a drop of dishsoap into the oil spill, the oil will move away quickly, but eventually, the oil will spread back.
