11 workers remain missing from the Transocean rig. 17 crew were seriously injured.

                     

The platform 52 miles southeast of Venice, Louisiana sank Thursday after responder boats attempted to save it by blasting water onto the flames.

Valued at up to $600 million, it was operated by BP and cost nearly $500,000 to operate per day.
