The rig was NOT sabotaged. There were corners cut, and there were inspectors ON the rig at the time, trying to tell the operators NOT to perform the action that they believed would cause the blowout.
They were ignored, and we saw the result.
Turning off or otherwise disabling the safety systems is “not” sabotage?
The general alarm was in manual override at the time of the blast which means that someone would have had to physically hit the alarm switch to sound it.
The emergency shutdown system which would have cut off all ignition sources when the gas alarms went off. But ooops that didn’t work now did it?
Same goes for the automatic gas pressure valves that shut down once a certain pressure is reached thus preventing gas from blowing into the rig. The valves were in bypass mode at the time of the blowout and explosion.
And there were no inspectors on board when the Blowout and explosion happened.... They were some corporate hacks “visiting the troops” who were more preoccupied with playing a simulator than doing anything else.
