U.S. significantly increases flow estimate of BP spill
A team of U.S. scientists significantly increased its estimate of how much oil is gushing into the Gulf of Mexico from BP's blown-out well on Tuesday.
The team said the "most likely flow rate of oil today" ranges from 35,000 to 60,000 barrels per day.
That's a jump from last week's revision upward to 20,000 to 40,000 barrels per day.
