The Coast Guard and federal regulators were responding Tuesday to a "loss of well control event" at a natural gas and crude oil platform about 74 miles southwest of Port Fourchon.
According to site assessments, natural gas is flowing from a well in Ship Shoal Block 225, and a rainbow sheen is visible on the water's surface, which both agencies estimated to be more than four miles wide by three-quarters of a mile long.
