Prior to the BP oil spill, it was considered that the necessary precautions had been taken so there would be no oil spill. This has been proven wrong. The motivation for drilling for oil is to make money.
Many oil wells similar to the one that caused the BP spill are drilled around the world. There is very active discussion of the causes with the industry and government, and how to prevent them in the future.
