What year was the BP Gulf oil well drilled?
If I understood this correctly the platform that blew up was a drilling platform and it was just drilling and not producing. It seems that there are two types. One is for drilling only and the other is for production. So, this means it was still being drilled. Right now there are 33 producing platforms in the Gulf and several drilling ones. BP is planning a new drilling platform in the Arctic that is 2 miles below and then will go 8 miles sideways. Makes you wonder why they have approval.
