If I'm BP and I'm doing very risky exploratory drilling more than a mile below the surface of the Gulf then I'm using EVERY safeguard that is available worldwide...BP made more than $2 Billion in profit per month in the last quarter and money is not an issue...and why would BP EVER outsource the cementing of the well to Halliburton....?? Dick Cheney's former company is notorious for cutting corners and not delivering exceptional service (in Iraq and in other places)...If I'm drilling this ultra deep test well in the Gulf with a rig where I'm ultimately responsible then I'm going to use the absolute best suppliers -- I want the folks that created the Norweigian platforms where the standards are the highest in the world...I go way beyond U.S. regulations because I can afford it and the cost of a spill would be tragic (and I'm partially self-insured as a company).
