Hull fatigue in oil tankers, tankers breaking up in heavy seas,rust in pipelines.It is not possible to exsract oil out of the ground or frrom the sea bed without spilling at least some oil.Many major oil splills have been avoidable, by spending more money on maintainence and inspection of tankers and pipelines, as well as heeding weather warnings.

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.
