Prestige Destructive Oil Spill |

 |
||||||
| The Prestige, an ageing, single-hulled oil tanker, ruptured in a storm off the coast of north-western Spain on November 13, 2002. The tanker sank six days later, spilling an estimated 25,000 tonnes of oil that fouled beaches from Portugal to south-western France. | ||||||
