Five years since the BP/Deepwater Horizon disaster began, Sky Truth highlights all of the other oil and hazardous material spills that have been reported in the Gulf since the BP spill was stopped in July 2010.
Including one well that has been leaking for over a decade!

Bill Nelson said it is "unacceptable" that oil is still leaking from the site off Louisiana's coast where an oil platform owned by Taylor Energy Company toppled during Hurricane Ivan in 2004.
