Approximately 2 miles south of Port Fourchon which took a direct hit from Ida. (Appears that the pipeline is in Louisiana State waters).
Water depth = 34′
Talos funding spill response, although the company said it was not their pipeline
Leak has slowed significantly; apparently production is not entering the line and the spill is limited to pipeline inventory
This type of incident is not surprising given the magnitude and track of Ida and the pipeline infrastructure that was exposed to major hurricane conditions
