How it happened:

What are the basics of what happened?

On the night of April 20, the Deepwater Horizon oil rig had an explosion [4], and two days later, it sank in the Gulf of Mexico. Eleven workers are missing and presumed dead. The rig was operated by British oil giant BP but owned by Transocean, the world’s largest offshore drilling company. The incident ruptured the oil well and has caused what is known as a blowout, or an uncontrollable spill. The well has since spewed millions of gallons of crude oil into the Gulf of Mexico.

What caused the incident?

That’s still being investigated. A drilling procedure called “cementing,” which is meant to secure the walls of a well, has often caused blowouts [5] in the Gulf, according to a 2007 study, and it’s a suspected cause in this case.

Halliburton was the subcontractor handling the cementing process on the Deepwater Horizon rig, which it completed shortly before the explosion [6]. It has been under scrutiny for its role in potentially causing the blowout.


And I seriously hope it doesn't, I swear to god BP needs to get their heads out of their asses and do something about it... FAST
