China’s maritime authority on Tuesday confirmed that it will sue companies responsible for oil leaks in the Bohai Bay.
The State Oceanic Administration (SOA) said in a statement that the oil spill in the Penglai 19-3 oil-field developed by ConocoPhillips China caused damage to China’s oceanic ecological system, and the North China Sea branch of the SOA will, on behalf of the country, file lawsuits against companies responsible for the leaks.
