Well the other big blowout in the gulf took 9 months. So hopefully it wont be as bad, but yes, its not a good situation.
"The biggest one in the Gulf was the Ixtoc I in 1979. This spill ran from June 1979 to March 1980 (9 months) and released 140 million gallons of oil. By comparison, the Exxon Valdez (only!) released 10.8 million gallons."
