Gulf of Alaska Off Dixon Entrance.
1. On October 2, 1987, the tanker Stuyvesant departed from the Valdez terminal, en route to Panama, with 1,500,000 barrels of North Slope crude on board. The vessel encountered severe storms during October 3-5 while approximately 200 miles offshore of Prince of Wales and Queen Charlotte Islands. At approximately 1500 on October 6, the U.S. Coast Guard Marine Safety Office (MSO), Juneau, was notified that a leak had been detected in one of the Stuyvesant's starboard tank on October 4. The leak was believed to have stopped on the evening of October 6 when the vessel was approximately 200 miles offshore the Columbia River mouth. However, Coast Guard overflights identified oil slicks off the Washington/ Oregon coast and off Dixon Entrance. A total of 600,000 gallons of North Slope crude is believed to have been lost between October 4-6. USCG district 17.
