OML 56 record summary

This authority page combines evidence matching the verified identifiers OML 56 without rewriting the label supplied by either source. It contains 169 monthly gas flare observations from March 2012 through May 2026. The oil spill source contains 1 records explicitly mentioning one of these verified identities.

Connected state records: Delta. A state connection can come from an explicitly matched spill or the supplied block coordinate and does not define the block's complete legal boundary.

Source interpretation

The underlying records retain their original identifiers: OML 56. Documentary lineage merges evidence for discovery and analysis; it does not silently rename historical observations.

No verified polygon-name match is available. Documentary lineage does not manufacture or substitute a boundary.

Relationship rules: spill links require an explicit block-name match in source text; cluster links use polygon containment when a matched polygon exists, otherwise they are clearly labelled as coordinate proximity. Neither establishes legal responsibility or ownership.
