The reputation of the oil and gas industry has taken another hit after confirmation of a second leak from an oil rig in the Timor Sea, off northern Australia.

The gas leak is 50 kilometres from the West Atlas oil rig - which has been discharging oil for 10 weeks now, at a rate of hundreds of barrels a day.
