A snapshot into the amount of oil released into the Gulf per daily flow rate estimates of 35K, 45K and 60K.

Per day: 35K brls (1470K gals)

Total: 2,685,083 brls (113M gals)

Per day: 45K brls (1890K gals)

Total: 3,452,265 brls (145M gals)

Per day: 60K brls (2520K gals)

Total: 4,603,027 brls (193M) gals

And as bad as this is – it says nothing about the consequences of the over 1M gallons of dispersant used and the methane gas dead zones in the Gulf.
