How do you suppose they would install one of those below the sea floor? The 'center' pipe is the drill stem. |

doc User ID: 985181 Belgium 06/02/2010 01:09 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | An 'annular' can be opened and closed from the drilling platform. That's how it/they got damaged. They had closed it/them for a pressure test and somebody accidentlally moved the drill string. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 441617how in the hell did that system allowed that in the first place? |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 990542 United States 06/02/2010 08:59 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | BP stock price tumbling to 36.57 a share... Quoting: Anonymous Coward 875706THIS is what BP is scared about, not the leak. Exactly, Nothing but a bunch of criminals. BP's safety violations far outstrip its fellow oil companies. According to the Center for Public Integrity, in the last three years, BP refineries in Ohio and Texas have accounted for 97 percent of the "egregious, willful" violations handed out by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA). The violations are determined when an employer demonstrated either an "intentional disregard for the requirements of the [law], or showed plain indifference to employee safety and health." OSHA statistics show BP ran up 760 "egregious, willful" safety violations, while Sunoco and Conoco-Phillips each had eight, Citgo had two and Exxon had one comparable citation.
