NEW Aerial Photos Show MTBE Spill In Houston Ship Channel

With the fog cleared, some new ariel photographs launched Tuesday afternoon present the MT Carla Maersk and MV Conti Peridot nonetheless at anchor within the Houston Ship Channel close to Morgan’s Point, Texas, the place the vessels collided noon Monday. A sheen of MTBE, a hazardous and intensely flammable gasoline additive, may be seen coming from the bow of the tanker.

As of Tuesday afternoon, the Houston Ship Channel remained closed to all site visitors from mild 86 to the Fred Hartman Bridge, a roughly 4 mile stretch.

The Port of Houston Authority has already mentioned that the Barbours Cut Container Terminal won’t open for regular enterprise operations on Wednesday at 7:00 a.m., a sign that the portion of the Houston Ship Channel that continues to be shut won’t be reopened both.

The Carla Maersk spilled an unknown amount of the roughly 216,000 barrels of the chemical Methyl Tertiary Butyl Ether (MTBE) it was hauling when the collision breached three of the ships port tanks. The Conti Peridot, carrying a cargo of metal, suffered injury to its bow and reportedly misplaced an anchor.

The Coast Guard mentioned that the efforts to scrub up the MTBE may take days.
