    The document discusses the 2010 BP oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico. On April 20, 2010, methane gas from the BP oil well expanded and caused the drilling rig to explode, resulting in the largest offshore oil spill in U.S. history. Efforts to contain the flow of oil initially failed. The well was finally capped on September 19, 2010.
