Not to engage in too much tinfoil here, but according to this story on the 22nd, a worker said there was one explosion, but no sizable fire, then THREE HOURS LATER, another, bigger explosion that started the fire that took down the rig... How does that happen over a three-hour gap? The first explosion must have been “contained” or else they would have evacuated the rig immediately. So what set off the second explosion?

Seems like sabotage to me. i.e., an inside job.

An offshore drilling rig is a pretty highly controlled environment. Care to speculate how a saboteur is going to get on board, get an explosive device down the hole, and then trigger it, with no one noticing or challenging him? Don't you think BP keeps logs of who comes and goes on the drilling deck? Let's not get hysterical here. This is an industrial accident.
