The Royal Thai Navy has deployed vessels, equipped with skimmers, oil booms and dispersant, to prevent a 4km long oil slick from moving toward the eastern coast of the Gulf.

 

The bunker oil slick, estimated at about 20,000 litres, leaked from a sunken oil tanker, Golden Bridge 2, and was reported to be about 15km from Si Chang Island off Chon Buri province moving west, according to the Geo-informatics and Space Technology Development Agency (GISTDA).

 

Golden Bridge 2 contained about 104,000 litres of bunker oil when it capsized and sank in high seas in the Gulf on December 3rd.

The environment thanks again!
But why the Royal Navy? They have no experience for cases like these and probably not even the equipment!
