he parekura nui; i ruia i te rā me te hawhe i muri mai. Ahakoa i whakaatu nga ripoata tuatahi he iti noa iho te hinu i turuturu, i te Paenga-whawha 27 i kii a BP e tata ana ki te hinu i ia ra i puta mai i te matenga o te poka, i raro i te mata i te papa o te moana.

I te 10 o Hune, i kii te Ropu Rapu Rapu mai i te "Deepwater Horizon" Incident Joint Information Center kua whakatauhia e ratou ko te tatauranga o te rerenga mai i te upoko o te poka kua kore e whakahaerehia mo ia ra.
