BP oil in the gulf, no relief until August
Oil in the Gulf, no relief until August BP Scrambles New Plan to Stop Oil, Says End Point Is Relief Well Due in August A BP executive says a relief well is the "end point" of efforts to stop the Gulf oil spill — which suggests there's little chance of plugging the leak until the new well is completed in August. With BP declaring failure in its latest attempt to plug the uncontrolled gusher feeding the worst oil spill in U.S. history, the company is turning to yet another mix of risky undersea robot maneuvers and longshot odds to keep crude from flowing into the Gulf. Robert Dudley, BP's managing director, said on "Fox News Sunday" that company officials were disappointed that they "failed to wrestle this beast to the ground." But skepticism is growing that BP can solve the crisis. www.foxnews.com/us/2010/05/30/failure-bp-scrambles-new-plan-plug-spewing-oil-gulf-mexico/
