The Oil Company Behind the #DeepwaterHorizon Spill Wants to Do a Massive, Risky Drilling Project in the Gulf
July 11, 2025
"What’s happening: #BP, the company behind the worst #OilSpill in U.S. history, is asking the Trump administration to allow it to drill a new, #UltraDeepwater project in the #GulfOfMexico.
"Why it matters: BP’s Deepwater Horizon disaster in 2010 killed 11 people and released 4.9 million barrels of oil that blanketed the Gulf shoreline. It wiped out horrific amounts of marine life, cratered local economies, and left Gulf communities burdened with everything from health issues to unemployment.
"The conditions around BP’s new proposed project, #Kaskida, could make it even more dangerous than the Deepwater Horizon. Kaskida would be in greater depths, where equipment would have to withstand higher pressures and temperatures.
"BP lacks experience operating this type of well and had not met required qualifications for using this drilling technology at the time of its application. It also vastly underestimates the impacts of another oil spill. We’re telling the government not to give BP another chance to contaminate the Gulf and disrupt coastal communities."

Fifteen years after the #DeepwaterHorizon #OilSpill, the #environmental impact is still felt along the #GulfCoast. #Settlement money is also nearing an end, leaving states like Louisiana searching for alternative funding sources for their #CoastalRestoration projects.

But #DisasterCorporatism dictates that a mulinational can get a lot of money to cleanup an #oilSpill.Which #fossilFuel company said a variation of the above as a way to boost #GDPgrowth in #Australia?
