   Offshore production from major oil names like Occidental, W&T Offshore and   
   Talos Energy has been shuttered following a spill that Bloomberg is   
   calling the worst in the US "since the Deepwater Horizon disaster."   
      
   These producers took a significant hit on Thursday as they stopped   
   approximately 62,000 barrels of daily oil production due to a subsea   
   pipeline rupture. The rupture resulted in a substantial oil spill of   
   26,000 barrels, equivalent to the volume of two Olympic-size swimming   
   pools, in the Gulf of Mexico near Louisiana, Bloomberg noted.   
      
   If the magnitude of this spill is verified, it would mark the most   
   substantial incident of its kind since 2010, when BP PLC's Deepwater   
   Horizon rig catastrophe led to the release of 3.2 million barrels of oil   
   off the coast of Louisiana.   
      
   The report, citing the U.S. Coast Guard, said other firms impacted by the   
   situation include Walter Oil & Gas Corp, Cantium LLC, and Arena Offshore   
   LLC.   
      
   These entities are now prohibited from resuming pumping activities until   
   the source of the leak is securely identified and necessary repairs are   
   completed, as outlined by the Coast Guard's statement.   
      
   The initial report of the spill came last Thursday when Main Pass Oil   
   Gathering Co., the pipeline operator, observed a decrease in pipe   
   pressure. It remains uncertain whether Main Pass is indeed the origin of   
   the spill since multiple operators operate in the vicinity. Nevertheless,   
   the Coast Guard has labeled the incident as MPOG 11015, with reference to   
   the company, the report said.   
      
   If the size of the leak is confirmed, it would be the 11th largest in U.S.   
   history.
