The oil slick created buy the oil company Exxon . And ship was called Exxon Valdez, so Exxon oil company paid as well as cleared up the oil slick .
This cannot be known for certain. For starters, have they properly stopped the release of oil yet? No guarantees here. Secondly, how do you define 'cleaned up'? One would think that the Exxon Valdez spill was cleaned up some time ago and all the wildlife back again. But I learn that you can still find oil there even now. So is that spill cleaned up or not, in your definition?
Phillips 66 cleaned up the oil-spill on Ekofisk 2/4 B in 1977.
Not yet...
the oil got all cleaned up
Many differences: 1) Exxon Valdez was a tanker accident, therefore the quantity of oil was known. The spill size in the Gulf of Mexico is unknown as oil is still spilling from the wellbore. 2) Wave action was probably more effective in breaking up the oil spill. 3) Oil booms were not available to contain the Exxon-Valdez spill. 4) Other measures to disperse the spill were not available. Surfactants and bio-remediation were used late in the clean up operation. 5) The Exxon Valdez appears to be a more viscous oil than the Gulf spill. No attempt to burn the oil was considered. The Exxon oil was more prone to form emulsions. 6) Due to water temperatures, the Exxon oil was unlikely to evaporate th high end alkanes. In the Gulf spill (and also the Kuwait spill) high temperatures will allow the high end alkanes to evaporate.
It killed animals by the poison in the oil.
It hasnt been cleaned up its still leaking. Bp has no idea how to close off the pipe or get it cleaned up they have completly screwed our marine life in the gulf.
it has to be cleaned up quickly because it wil stick to the surface and would be hard to clean up and could be a danger hazard.
Dawn dish soap
Exxon stock goes up when people anticipate that their earnings will be going up in the future.
i think the main reason of that is falling of US dollar
