American oil blow up

This is becoming very similar to a French farce if it were not so damn serious!! The blame game has started in earnest and the real winner as I said previously will be M'learned Friends who will be queueing up to go to court on behalf of anyone!!

It now comes out that BP had the wrong drawings in order to close the blow out preventer!!!!

Heads must roll. Where were the Health and Safety guys who signed off on the equipment? In the pub?

As I said in my posts B.P., Transocean and Haliburton are all in the blame game and it is now suggested in the Guardian newspaper that all ignored safety test results!!! I hand it to the U.S., for once. They have very quickly set up a Senate Committee to look into the "who,what where and why" of this blow out and their conclusions will have far reaching effects on the oil drilling industry for decades.
