Remarks: EXPLORATION SPILL. While offloading Black Magic from workboat "Gulf Fleet 21" to drilling rig, a hose on the vessel parted underwater at the connection with the rig hose. About 10 minutes elapsed before it was noticed and the pumps on the vessel were shut down. An estimated 100 bbl of Black Magic (either 70 or 77 percent oil) were pumped overboard, so 70-77 bbl of oil were lost.
