I find this news overwhelming considering the BP accident, which happened only 135 days prior. I would think every person in this industry would be dotting their I's and crossing their T's. Will this accident along with the BP accident highlight stricter safety regulations in this field or will the Gulf be a black, oily mess for months or even years to come?
Accidents can prove fatal, but at least in this one it was not. All thirteen employees of Mariner Energy survived and had no serious injuries. The environment will be fine as well, no oil leaks have been found. Thank Goodness!
