Commish: Poor Management That Caused BP Oil Spill Is Industry-Wide

Rachel Slajda | January 6, 2011, 9:43AM

Transocean Deepwater Horizon drilling platform sinks during Gulf Oil Spill Disaster

The Deepwater Horizon blowout that lead to the worst oil spill in U.S. history was caused by poor management -- poor management that, according to the presidential Oil Spill Commission, is industry-wide.

The commission, which has released some of its findings on the causes of the blowout, says the blowout could have been prevented by better management by BP and its partners, Halliburton and Transocean.

"The blowout was not the product of a series of aberrational decisions made by rogue industry or government officials that could not have been anticipated or expected to occur again," the report reads. "Rather, the root causes are systemic and, absent significant reform in both industry practices and government policies, might well recur."

Are The FDA's Safe Seafood Standards Based On The Wrong Numbers?

Rachel Slajda | December 16, 2010, 8:43AM

NOAA officials sort fish gathered from an area affected by the Deep Horizon oil spill.

Even as the Obama administration tries to encourage folks to eat more Gulf of Mexico seafood, health advocates on the Gulf Coast are calling into question the method federal agencies use to determine the food is safe.

The Federal Drug Administration, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration and other agencies use an average level of seafood consumption to determine what level of pollutants would make a Gulf shrimp or oyster unsafe. Both agencies have declared Gulf seafood safe, as long as its taken from non-restricted areas.

But, according to a report released this month by the environmental non-profit Natural Resources Defense Council, the numbers the FDA uses for average consumption are far, far below the amount of seafood that the average Gulf Coast resident eats.

According to the NRDC's survey, Gulf Coast residents eat between four and 12 times as much as the national average.

Head Of Oil Spill Commission: No Evidence BP Cut Corners to Save Cash

Rachel Slajda | November 8, 2010, 4:18PM

Chief Counsel Fred Bartlit during a hearing on BP's Macondo well disaster.

Fred Bartlit, the lead investigator for the Oil Spill Commission, today said he's seen no evidence that the BP oil disaster was caused by sacrificing safety for cost.

"To date we have not seen a single instance where a human being made a conscious decision to favor dollars over safety," Bartlit said at a hearing today. "A lot has been said about this, but we have not found a situation where we can say a man had a choice between safety and dollars and put his money on dollars. If anybody has anything else to say about that, we're happy to hear it."

Investigator: Halliburton Knew Macondo Cement Was Unstable Before The Spill

Rachel Slajda | October 28, 2010, 3:04PM

An explosion at the Deepwater Horizon oil rig

The lead investigator for the presidential commission on the BP oil spill said today that Halliburton, and possibly BP, appears to have known the cement it was using in the Macondo well was unstable.

In a letter to the commission (PDF), Fred Bartlit wrote that Halliburton had conducted four lab tests of the formula for the cement. Two tests in February showed the slurry would be unstable, and Halliburton apparently gave the results of one of those tests to BP. Another test in April also showed it would be unstable; those results weren't shared with BP, Bartlit wrote. A fourth test, also in April showed the cement would be stable. But, Bartlit writes, "Halliburton may not have had -- and BP did not have -- the results of that test before the evening of April 19," when rig workers began pumping the cement into the Macondo well. The well blew on April 20.

White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs told reporters today that the deepwater drilling moratorium will likely be lifted soon, and as early as this week.

That's earlier than the original Nov. 30 end-date for the moratorium, which bars oil and gas companies from drilling new deepwater wells in the Gulf of Mexico during the ongoing investigation of the Deepwater Horizon explosion and subsequent, massive oil spill.

Reuters today is also reporting that the head of the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management, the new department which oversees drilling, will make an "imminent" announcement about the moratorium.

Kenneth Feinberg and his law firm, which oversees the doling out of compensation to oil spill victims, have been paid $850,000 a month by BP since the compensation fund was created in mid-June.

BP agreed to pay Feinberg Rozen LLP $850,000 a month from mid-June through Oct. 1, according to Bloomberg -- a grand total of $2.5 million.

Feinberg's firm was appointed by the White House to administer a (eventually) $20 billion escrow fund, funded by BP in order to pay claims by fishermen, hotel owners and others hurt by the oil spill.

Adm. Thad Allen gives a press conference about the oil spill in June.

The presidential oil spill commission Wednesday released a series of preliminary reports on how the BP oil disaster was handled. In one of the reports, the commission found that the White House stopped NOAA, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, from releasing its worst case scenario numbers in the days after the Deepwater Horizon exploded.

"By initially underestimating the amount of oil flow ... the federal government created the impression that it was either not fully competent to handle the spill or not fully candid with the American people about the scope of the problem," the report reads.

The story from the White House, needless to say, differs.

The Deepwater Horizon's blowout preventer, the massive structure meant to stop the well from blowing out and spilling millions of barrels of oil, failed in part because BP and its contractors weren't keeping up with its maintenance, BP's own investigation into the disaster found.

In a report released today, BP's investigators wrote that the blowout preventer had problems when the well blew on April 20 -- problems that could have been detected.

BP has agreed to voluntarily fund a slew of programs related to Gulf restoration beyond its legal obligations, and state and federal officials are pushing for more. But the company is warning that proposed legislation that would limit its Gulf oil production would also limit its generosity.

Gov't Admits There's A Lot More Oil Left In The Gulf Than They Initially Said

Oil from the Deepwater Horizon disaster washes ashore in Louisiana

Earlier this month, as BP pumped cement into the ruined blowout preventer on the bottom of the Gulf, the government released a four-page, scant-on-details report that claimed that only a quarter of the 4.9 millions of barrels of oil was left in the Gulf. The rest, they said, had been cleaned up, evaporated or dispersed into nonexistence.

And so the government essentially declared 'Mission Accomplished!' in the Gulf.

But skepticism quickly seeped into media reports, followed by scientific findings that there's still oil -- a lot of oil -- floating around in the Gulf of Mexico.

Enviro Agency Just Guessed At Size Of Major Spill When OK'ing Gulf Wells

Rachel Slajda | July 26, 2010, 5:19PM

Aerial view of oil being burned from the BP Deepwater Horizon platform

Earlier this month, we told you how the National Marine Fisheries Service, charged with protecting endangered marine life in the Gulf, drastically underestimated the size and effects of an oil spill in the Gulf. Its opinion allowed the government to sell leases to oil reserves in the Gulf -- including the now-leaking Macondo well -- to various oil companies.

Fisheries estimated that a "major" oil spill would be about half the size of the Ixtoc I disaster, which dumped an estimated 3.5 million barrels in the Gulf of Mexico in 1979.

TPMmuckraker has now found proof that Fisheries did little more than throw up their hands and guess when coming up with that estimation. But the former Minerals Management Service did much worse, estimating that such a spill would be about 15,000 barrels -- less than one percent of Fisheries' estimate.

Leo Lindner, a drilling fluid specialist for M-I Swaco, told the panel investigating the causes of the explosion that BP decided to mix two chemicals the company had a surplus of -- two chemicals that aren't usually mixed -- and pump them into the well to flush out the drilling mud.

"It's not something we've ever done before," he said.

Interior Secretary Ken Salazar noted this week that the relief wells' blowout preventers, or BOPs, had been recently checked out under new testing requirements and found to have problems themselves, which have since been repaired.

We told you yesterday about a 2007 document that shows that the National Marine Fisheries Service drastically underestimated the size of a potential oil spill and its effect on endangered species like sea turtles when they signed off on lease sales for drilling sites in the Gulf. A Fisheries official now tells TPMmuckraker that, once the leak is resolved the agency will revisit the opinion.

The agency is charged with enforcing the Endangered Species Act, and part of its mandate is to consult with other federal agencies on whether a proposal -- in this case, opening more of the Gulf to oil and gas drilling -- will jeopardize the existence of protected species.

Enviro Agency Dramatically Underestimated Oil Spill Effects When Signing Off On BP Lease, Docs Show

Rachel Slajda | July 7, 2010, 3:17PM

A Kemp's Ridley sea turtle is recovered for clean up.

A federal agency charged with protecting endangered species signed off in 2007 on a new round of oil drilling leases in the Gulf of Mexico, saying that even if the new drilling led to a major oil spill, only some 60 endangered turtles would be killed, according to the official agency opinion reviewed by TPMmuckraker. But in the two months since the Deepwater Horizon blew, government scientists say more than 400 sea turtles have been found dead so far.

In 2007, the National Marine Fisheries Service, which enforces the Endangered Species Act, was asked to give its "biological opinion" on the impact of new oil drilling leases -- including the lease of the now-leaking Macondo prospect -- on endangered species, including turtles, sperm whales and sturgeon. Under the law, the Minerals Management Service, which leases the underwater wells, had to get NMFS's sign-off that the drilling wouldn't jeopardize the populations of endangered species.
