equipment to deal with this problem. It also has no experts on the payroll. The liability is BP's and for the gov. to take over MIGHT void that liability. Probably more lawyers involved here than oil specialists.
The equipment on the sea floor is BP's. Perhaps there is a difference between this equipment and the equipment of other companies.
We do have doubts about the news/lack of news coming out of the spill zone. This may be due more to legal liability and responsibility than to actually blacking out news. Whatever is being done takes time...nothing will be a quick fix.
Anyone know for sure if another drilling rig has been brought in or is BP using drilling ships(theirs)for salvage?
