I’ve been reading most of the morning.

Typically, where BP can find blame in others they exert it, where BP are at fault they share it.

The can of worms this report opens for unnecessary and unrealistic higher costs for all of us is exhaustive. From this time forward there will not be a Master Service Agreement left standing that is less than hundreds of pages. The accountability of others that BP assert via contract and implication will result in either a huge increase in cost to them or refusal of any competent and wise contractor to work for them.

I repeat, there is no accountable party on the permit to drill but BP... that is all, no others, just BP.

These people are at once disgusting and pitiful. Boys(BP), a job that requires you to compromise your integrity is not a job worth keeping. You should be ashamed.

Next stop, the courthouse. If BP would just go bankrupt before that it would be best.

Thanks for the updates. I suspected a flawed cement job (plug). I reckon there will be a fair amount of trying to deflect liability as this gets sorted out.
