VERMILION BAY, LA (WAFB) - The Coast Guard is responding to another oil rig explosion in the Gulf of Mexico.

According to the Coast Guard, 13 people were onboard when it exploded and caught fire Thursday morning.

Everyone is accounted for. Officials are reporting one injury.

The injured worker is being taken to Terrebonne General Medical Center in Houma.

The other workers are in the water in immersion suits.

The rig is located about 90 miles south of Vermilion Bay.

Rescue choppers from New Orleans and Houston are responding.

The explosion happened around 9:30 a.m. and as of 10:30 a.m. it was still on fire.

Coast Guard officials said they do not yet know if there is any type of leak associated with this explosion.

They said there are reports it was not actively producing product, but they will investigate whether there is any type of environmental impact.

The rig is known as "Vermilion 398."

The rig is owned by Mariner Energy, which is based in Houston, and is in water about 2,500 feet deep.

The company has an office in Lafayette.

This recent explosion is west of the one that happened on April 20 which caused a massive oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico.

That's pppppreeeetttyy bad news. 

[Soul Crusher]

There have been no rig explosions for decades, Obama comes in seeking and campaigning to end oil, fossil fuels, cap & trade, blah blah, and all of a sudden two explosions. 

[loco]

Bush did it.

Seems like a lot of enviro-marxists are lashing out lately.

Very fishy. 

At least I have the balls to come out and state my conspiracy theories....  You made all kind of one liners suggesting something was up with the first one, now this one is fishy too?  Just come out with it man.  You clearly think something is going on.  What is it?

If I recall correctly, 33 believes in quite a few CTs from the past - down to the luscitania LIHOP.

I wouldn't get excited over 3333 admitting CTs that even the History Channel talks about.  What 3333 does like to do is make suggestive statements of something sneeky going on without ever coming out and saying it for sure.

well, he has a ct that a secret group of "NWO" types that live in a castle in transylvania are secretly pulling all the strings of the worlds' leaders.

He doesn't have names or anything, but he knows they are there.

I believe 911 and the birth cert are fishy, but I don't know about 'evil dudes in castle controlling world'... sounds a little farfetched to me.   But i respect his opinion they're telling obama to intentionally crash the economy.

[loco]

Bush lit a match on the rig to smoke a joint

funny, sounds spot on to me...

maybe it was obama on a rowboat with a pack of newports paddling away.

Dr Steven Jones of BYU saw the whole damn thing!

Obama purposely attempting to collapse the economy isnt a theory,its a proven fact.Look at the numbers and the policies he is following.A blind man in a graveyard at midnight could figure it out.

It is funny, if 3333 believes in a sinister ruling class, as I do, why would he think that Obama's replacement is going to be any better?  Oh, IT will have a new face but in the end, we'll still be heading for the same pile of shit.

[loco]

No, it's Bush's fault.  Bush had been spotted lighting farts on the rig shortly before the explosion.
