Close up of protesters with dead bird.\u003cbr/\u003eEng/Span/Portu \u003cbr/\u003ePetrobras, the government-owned oil company in Brazil, is trying to keep a massive oil slick from spreading to the country's tourist beaches.\u003cbr/\u003eWorkers have been installing more floating barriers in Rio's Guanabara Bay amid growing concerns that winds and tides could carry the oil to famous beaches like Copacabana.\u003cbr/\u003eLast Tuesday, a pipeline leak from the Reduc oil refinery dumped thousands of gallons of crude oil into the bay.\u003cbr/\u003eA week after 338-thousand gallons (over one (m) million litres) of crude oil leaked from the Petrobras refinery into the Guanabara Bay in Rio de Janeiro, the company continues its emergency operation to contain the spillage.\u003cbr/\u003eThe slick has already spread to swamplands near Rio and there are now concerns that winds and tides could carry the oil across to some of the area's most famous tourist beaches. \u003cbr/\u003ePetrobras workers are now setting up buoys to hold back the oil along the 13 and a half kilometres-long bridge that links Rio de Janeiro and the city of Niteroi.\u003cbr/\u003eThis is an addition to a 10-thousand foot wall of buoys already in place.\u003cbr/\u003eAll in all, 26-thousand metres of oil collecting devices will be set up in the next few days.\u003cbr/\u003eThe buoys could prevent the oil from reaching the open sea and washing up on world-famous beaches such as Copacabana and Ipanema.\u003cbr/\u003eBut the spillage has already damaged nearby beaches, like the one in Ilha do Governador.\u003cbr/\u003eLocal fishermen say their catch has been destroyed.\u003cbr/\u003eTourists in Copacabana and Ipanema beaches are worried that the oil could reach them soon.\u003cbr/\u003eSOUNDBITE: (Spanish)\u003cbr/\u003e\"We are looking for beaches that have not the (high) degree of pollution the ones in Rio have now and we're afraid the oil spillage will get to this beach and spoil it.\" \u003cbr/\u003eSUPER CAPTION: Laura Szerman, Argentinean tourist\u003cbr/\u003ePetrobras has denied this possibility.\u003cbr/\u003eEven so, environmental protesters chained the doors of the petroleum company on Monday.\u003cbr/\u003eSecurity guards cut the chains and the Greenpeace protesters did not prevent workers from entering the building.\u003cbr/\u003ePetrobras has promised more help for fishermen and to save wildlife jeopardised by the spill.\u003cbr/\u003eIt has also pledged support for a programme to clean up Guanabara Bay and to examine ways to minimise the environmental impact of the accident.\u003cbr/\u003eBut Greenpeace says the company is not doing enough.\u003cbr/\u003eSOUNDBITE: (English)\u003cbr/\u003e\"What we want is that Petrobras stops being so incompetent and irresponsible and do a proper clean-up. They're not using the proper equipment, they claim they're using high technology when they're actually just scooping and taking dirty sand away. They're not saving birds, they're not doing their job.\"\u003cbr/\u003eSUPER CAPTION: Marcelo Furtado, Greenpeace spokesman\u003cbr/\u003eBy the beginning of this week, the oil had reached the Tubiacanga mangrove swamp on Governador Island, the bay's last untouched mangrove swamp. \u003cbr/\u003eThe spill earlier had devastated the Guapimirim and Jequia swamps, protected areas and important breeding grounds for fish, birds and crustaceans.\u003cbr/\u003eSOUNDBITE: (Portuguese)\u003cbr/\u003e\"The ecological disaster that happened in the Guanabara Bay --one of the worst disasters in recent times, could have been avoided because in 1997 the Petrol Workers Union of Duque de Caixas denounced that that same pipe was condemned and Petrobras didn't take any action to replace it.\"\u003cbr/\u003eSUPER CAPTION: Nilson Viana Cesario, President of Petrol Workers Union of Duque de Caixas\u003cbr/\u003eAlthough Petrobras borrowed miles of buoys from the United States, England and Canada to form barriers and contain the spill within the bay, biologists said the damage already had been done.\u003cbr/\u003ePetrobras said the break in the nine-year-old pipeline indicated a problem with design, assembly or evaluation of the soil underneath the structure.\u003cbr/\u003e\u003c/span\u003e\n\u003c/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class='action-container flex
