Washington acusa a: BP Exploration and Production Inc., Anadarko Exploration & Production LP, Anadarko Petroleum Corporation, MOEX Offshore 2007 LLC, Triton Asset Leasing GMBH, Transocean Holdings LLC, Transocean Offshore Deepwater Drilling Inc., Transocean Deepwater Inc., y QBE Underwriting Ltd./Lloyd’s Syndicate 1036.
No habla de Halliburton que era la encargada de la cimentación del pozo Macondo. El objetivo es que se hagan cargo “sin límite” de los costes de retirada del crudo, las pérdidas económicas y los daños medioambientales. Ahora que los de BP veían el final del túnel, las acciones de BP han sufrido un efecto Moodys y se han ido al carajo.
According to the complaint, important safety and operating regulations were violated in the period leading up to the April 20, 2010 Oil Spill, including:
- Failing to take necessary precautions to keep the Macondo Well under control in the period leading up to the April 20th explosion;
- Failing to use the best available and safest drilling technology to monitor the well’s conditions;
- Failing to maintain continuous surveillance; and
- Failing to use and maintain equipment and material that were available and necessary to ensure the safety and protection of personnel, equipment, natural resources, and the environment.
