MIAMI — As BP engineers worked to contain a deep sea oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico on Monday, scientists tracking the spread of oil on the ocean's surface and underwater expressed concern that powerful currents could carry the crude as far east as Florida and potentially damage sensitive reefs in the Florida Keys.
Doug Suttles, BP chief operating officer, said Monday on NBC's ``Today'' show that a mile-long tube inserted into a damaged well on the sea floor was funneling a little more than 1,000 barrels — or 42,000 gallons — of oil, natural gas and water a day from the blown well into a tanker ship.
