- In the cumulative impact, the penalty will amount to over $187 billion.
BP's Market Cap is over $250 billion. Therefore, Levelized over 9.7 years =- Kaputt - - ???????
Investors, that implies of an infinite B.K.
As well as, it will curtail revenue stream to all other Oil Cartels.
Drill baby deep and deeper, the fact remains that the oil is at its peak.
Drill Deeper, even on-shore = Will cost a lot more, Debuts.
(Investors, Run before is too late) (The next infinite "Oil Bubble")
BP will be - - Kaputt - - ??????? - Reply to this comment
- Our USA form of justice goes after the little people but never goes after the white collar elite that cause such disastrous crimes.
That's not the way it works in China. They would make sure that such a disaster never occurred again. They'd take the CEOs of the three major companies involved (i.e. BP, Transocean and Halliburton), as well as the head of the government regulatory agency that didn't do its job, and these individuals would be lucky if they ever saw the outside of a cell again. Too bad for them but it would never happen again. We need swift and fair justice but that never happens in the USA. - Reply to this comment
- I think it would be best for this administration to admit that they are not in charge of anything to do with BP's attempts to stop the oil spill in the Gulf. Claiming to be in charge is assuming responsibility for the failed attempts! It is not believable that our government is in charge of or on top of anything! Admiral Alllen's attempts to convey confidence that the government knows what is occurring on a daily basis in the Gulf is weak at best. The damage to the Gulf shores becomes greater everyday and the oil spill, at a rate although in dispute, continues without a clear solution to stop it. BP is responsible and it is their attempts that have failed not our government!

- The lives of all the dolphins, birds, sealife, shrimpers and fishermen are destroyed, yet people are still buying gas at BP stations. Sad.

- Admiral Thad Allen,
You are too cozy with BP. What's this we stuff? BP is doing the work and you are supposed to make sure it gets done quickly and properly.
Letting this oil well runaway another day is not acceptable. You should make BP aware that its siphoning just part of the oil is not the near term solution we expect. There is technology to shut this well down immediately, the world knows it. So why don't you use it?
As far as the public is concerned The Coast Guard is in PB's front pocket. - Reply to this comment

- It is not acceptable to just give up and let the well continue to have "some leakage" until August.
The oil flow can be stopped right now utilizing the top kill equipment. In a May 30 Washington Post article it was reported that both BP and government official admitted that the flow was temporarily stopped during the top kill operation while they were pumping mud, but resumed when they stopped pumping.
They merely have to continuously pump mud into the BOP, as they demonstrated during the top kill, and continue doing that until the relief wells are completed. They can even pump ocean water into the BOP instead of mud. Then they can visually determine when the injected water has suppressed the oil flow as all they will see is water instead of oil and gas. Nothing could be faster and easier to stop the oil spill. The answer was right in front of their eyes and they didn't recognize it because it didn't allow the well to be permanently "killed". But it isn't necessary to "kill" the well, just "stop" the well. - Reply to this comment
- Tragedies used to bring out the best in Americans. Nowadays, tragedies bring out the stupidest, most selfish, and most politically charged comments whether related or unrelated to the incident.
