Oil almost gone

The oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico has nearly disappeared, says the US government.

BP capped the well last month and this seems to have stopped the leak.

Most of the oil that had pumped out of the well has now either been removed or dissolved into the water. But 200 million litres of oil are still left in the Gulf of Mexico.

The well first started leaking oil in April when the oil rig exploded.
