Tar Sands Definition - What does Tar Sands mean? Tar sands or oil sands consist of a mixture of earth, water and bitumen. Oil can be extracted from bitumen, and this has led to the mining of tar sands for refining into oil. Tar sands are accessed using strip-mining techniques or open cast mining. Alternatively, the tar sands can be heated underground making it possible to separate and extract the oil.

Deepwater Horizon oil spill The Deepwater Horizon oil spill (also referred to as the BP oil spill, the BP oil disaster, the Gulf of Mexico oil spill, and the Macondo blowout) began on 20 April 2010 in the Gulf of Mexico on the BP-owned Transocean-operated Macondo Prospect.il cleanup crews worked four days a week on 55 miles of Louisiana shoreline throughout 2013. Oil continued to be found as far from the Macondo site as the waters off the Florida Panhandle and Tampa Bay, where scientists said the oil and dispersant mixture is embedded in the sand.
