As I have been saying on all of these threads, it is amazing to me how BP was ALWAYS taking the “it will be okay” view on all of their data coming in. They had known for MONTHS that this was a problem well. And the folks on the rig (drillers, etc.) argued with them at each point.I wonder if this is about how Chernobyl played out, only without anyone arguing with their superiors...

I'm no petroleum engineer but if Baraq Petroleum was in the process of completing the well, I don't think it's an exploratory well.The first well in a new field is an exploratory well, as are subsequent wells to delineate the field boundaries.
If you don't complete it (set it up for production), that means you didn't find anything worth producing.
