there is a history of joint industry spill response type stuff. this is just expanding it to a much greater scale, and in doing so greatly expands the costs needed to acquire the equipment and maintain the appropriate level of readiness. it's definitely a serious cost committment.
and when you start talking about the technologies involved in these kinds of subsea interventions, you really need a lot of horsepower to make it a reality.

furthermore, there is no "opposition" to relief wells that can be mounted in the GOM. the department of the interior, through their notice to lessees #6 outlined what is expected of operators applying for new development plans in the gulf of mexico -- specifically outlining relief well plans, worst case blowout calculations, and anticipated relief well times. there's no way to "oppose" this, it is the way it is from now on.
Exactly. I have to start helping our drillers on relief well planning tommorrow. Its a fact of life now...nothing to oppose.
