Not really sure but its not due to submersion as oil has a lower specific gravity than water.  I suspect it is a combination of recovery efforts, natural degradation, some of it coming ashore, a spreading out of what was released, etc.  As I said in one of my earlier posts the maps put out by NOAA even early on were very misleading.  We would go for long distances between strands of oil where the water was pristine.  Having said that, there may be dissolved phase that is no visible but could be detected by a lab.  However, the dissolved phase is highly degradable in the environment, especially in open water.

I am looking seriously at gulf front rental condos right now because I think prices are very depressed, interest rates are very low and I am optimistic the worst is behind us.
