Temporary cap that stopped oil gusher into Gulf of Mexico removed

Published: 09.03.10, 01:07 / Israel News

Engineers have removed a temporary cap that stopped oil from gushing into the Gulf of Mexico from BP's blown-out well in mid-July. More oil is not expected to leak into the sea, but crews are on standby with collection vessels just in case.

 

The cap was removed Thursday as a prelude to raising the massive piece of equipment underneath that failed to prevent the worst offshore oil spill in US history. (AP)
