The ship was tugged away from the coast. On November 19 th , the vessel broke into two sections at about one hundred and thirty miles from the Galicia coast. The two parts of the wreck sank at a 3500 meters depth. More than 60,000 tons of heavy fuel were released into the marine environment. At sea containment and recovery, and aerial surveillance of the oil, were hampered by the weather and the oil remained at sea for a considerable period of time. Diffuse pollution was still reaching the coastline more than six months after the break.
