BP Gives Up

[Danzig]

It was my understanding that the well/rig that exploded was in the midst of being shut down. From what I read, that's the most dangerous part of drilling-stopping a well. How that has to do with greed I don't know, if they were ending oil drilling in that spot. The real issue is that they didn't have a cutoff that worked for that depth, and no relief well already in place. A relief well is required in other areas. For deep water, I guess they've now learned it should be required, since digging one takes time-as we can see
And bp leases that rig-i doubt they are the only ones to blame. U don't sue the dealer when your car is a lemon; you sue the car maker.
