What happens to the oil theyre skimming off of the Gulf

A deep-sea oil well has been leaking 42,000 gallons per day since the massive rig explosion last week off the Louisiana coast.

Remote-controlled submarines are trying to plug the leak, and cleanup crews have collected 48,000 gallons of oily water from the area. Is there any use for the recovered oil?
