Reports are that there was an explosion and now 11-15 crew members are still reported missing.


T&P to the crew and their families.

It's a BIG rig, the Horizon.

Had somewhere around 100 people on and they were drilling but not producing yet.

52 miles off Venice.

I don't have a single link, but I googled "rig fire louisiana" and found lots of articles.

Man, this isn't looking good. Would be a hell of a sight to see 100 miles of oil/water on fire though. Not really sure I would want to be the guy with the torch.
