Over the course of this week, multiple reports have been made of a potential oil leak at or near the Macondo Prospect - the site of last year's Deepwater Horizon drilling disaster. However, BP has denied any knowledge of such a leak and has instead focused media attention on two previously capped wells southwest of the Deepwater Horizon site in the Green Canyon Block of the Gulf of Mexico. In their official report, BP sent an unmanned submarine to check the status of the wells and found only minor activity.
