00:00The Philippine Coast Guard, or PCG, recovered 97.43% of the oil spilled by the empty Terra
00:08Nova in Limay, Bataan, totaling 1.4 million liters and 17,725 kilograms of solid oil
00:18waste.
00:19The remaining 2.57% of the oil, or nearly 38,000 liters, could not be recovered due
00:25to the factors like biodegradation and dissipation.
00:30Sorbent booms used to control the spill had absorbed some oil, and some sludge were no
00:35longer pumpable.
00:37The final stripping operation was completed to ensure no residual oil remained before
00:42salvaging the tanker.
