With the support of the crew of the Damon Bankston and the Ramblin
Wreck, 115 survivors were able to evacuate the Deepwater Horizon and be
immediately rescued without further incident.
If the aforementioned crews did not quickly direct the search and rescue
mission, assist in muster, provide changes of clothes, and coordinate medical
attention and transfer of injured personnel, the death toll could have been higher.
The Damon Bankston and Ramblin Wreck crews displayed valor, leadership,
and empathy towards their fellow mariners onboard the Deepwater Horizon at a
time of peril. The well‐being of the 115 survivors is directly attributable to their
actions.
Further, BOEMRE recognizes the efforts of crews within the vicinity of
MC 252 in responding to the Deepwater Horizon blowout. These individuals were
the first responders on the scene and provided admirable assistance to their
fellow offshore employees.
