What no one seems to want to talk about is the fast that this is a sour well. Sour wells produce significant amounts of hydrogen sulfide. Hydrogen sulfide + sea water equals sulfric acid. The oil is no the environment issue, it's realtively easy to clean up once the well is capped, there is no remediation possible for the acid..... you just have to let it dilute out.
