"A team of marine researchers, traveling with the WWF, are on their way to the site of the stricken West Atlas oil rig to assess the impact on the area's wildlife.
Thousands of liters of oil, gas and condensate have leaked into the
Timor Sea since August 21 from the well head near the West Atlas rig.
Five researchers plus a photographer from WWF Australia set sail from
Darwin this morning to the oil spill, about 250km off the Kimberley
coast, to begin a two-day scientific assessment of the damage done to
marine wildlife by the leaking oil."
