5. I think they actually said
Edited on Sun Aug-08-10 03:31 AM by dipsydoodle
they may do at a later date and also mentioned there's still $4 billion of oil and gas down there. I have a feeling it was also refuted / retracted / dismissed a short while later also by BP plc. It wasn't Bob Duncan who'd said it originally.

edit to add - Details here :


BP may re-drill near Gulf of Mexico oil well site

"Clearly there's lots of oil and gas there and we'll have to think about what to do with that at some point," Doug Suttles, BP's chief operating officer, told reporters.

Asked whether BP would consider donating the proceeds from the sale of any oil from the reservoir or selling the rights to another oil company, Suttles said "we just haven't thought about that."

"What we've been focused on is the response right now. We haven't even thought about what we'd do with this reservoir and this field someday."

>

BP later released a statement appearing to try to downplay his remarks, saying "BP's present focus is entirely on the response effort in the Gulf of Mexico and the future use of the reservoir is not currently under consideration."

We need to get OFF the oil - NOW.

7. I didn't say they did.
I just tried to convey what actually happened instead of a half truth.

Yes - we do need to get off oil. :hi:
