According to several sources and released documents, this is the case (unless the media is completely wrong on this issue). If this did not indeed happen, I will take back my negligence comment, but if it walks and quacks like a duck...

Everything now is hearsay. I definitely think some people on board made bad decisions, but the safety devices were tested accordingly and passed their respective tests. Were those test falsified? Who knows...

There are poor decisions similar to probably what happened on the Horizon that happen from time to time, but the BOP works to bail them out. For whatever reason, this time the BOP did NOT bail them out.

Poor decisions don't equal negligence. All I'm saying is don't jump to conclusions until all the facts come out.

Also, don't believe that the Transocean tool pusher, driller, and OIM would just blindly obey what the BP person tells them to do. If they feel something puts their people in harm's way then they won't do it. I think also possibly the people in charge may have put to much faith into their BOP system and relying on it as if it was a drilling/completion tool and not primarily a well control/safety device..
