Pensacola is getting raped. Tar balls everywhere. The water's leaving a slight oily residue on the sand.

That, by definition, is a cover-up.

Actually, they do form in the water. When crude oils mix with water it forms an emulsion that often looks like chocolate pudding. This emulsion is much thicker and stickier than the original oil. Winds and waves continue to stretch and tear the oil patches into smaller pieces, or tar balls.
