Don’t worry, besieged BP chief tells staff

A draft letter due to be delivered to Ken Salazar, the Interior Secretary, last night called for an “immediate shutdown” of the platform until regulators can guarantee it is operating safely. Atlantis, BP’s second-largest platform in the Gulf of Mexico, operates in 7,000ft of water — 2,000ft deeper than the Deepwater Horizon.

The US Minerals Management Service is investigating claims that Atlantis lacks key engineering safety documentation — an allegation that BP denies.
