BP was principal developer of the “Macondo Prospect” oil field and leased the drilling rig from Transocean Ltd.[11] The US Government has named BP as the responsible party in the incident and will hold the company …

@lacock007 what are they supposed to do about it?!?
ta pomoc super-MARIA
where is green peace?
That’s something you don’t see every day.
