"Catastrophic discharge".

Works for me. I'll be using those words instead of "spill" from now on.

10. "oilruption", which i've been pushing, isn't taking hold. how about just "gusher"?
that's what they call it on land, why not underwater?

"discharge" seems too benign a term, regardless of what adjective you attached to it.

"catastrophic gusher"?
