List of BP Comments - Unbelievable!

Let me know when you had enough!

  1. BP board Chairman Carl-Henric Svanberg said he has compassion for the “small people” in the Gulf. In one report I actually heard him say "the little people" and I am sure he wasn't referring to a community of dwarfs.
  2. At week six BP Chief Executive Tony Hayward uttered these words: “We're sorry for the massive disruption it's caused their lives. There's no one who wants this over more than I do. I'd like my life back.” 
  3. On May 18 Hayward told the BBC "I think the environmental impact of this disaster is likely to have been very, very modest." Making note of the fact that "The Gulf of Mexico is a very big ocean. The amount of volume of oil and dispersant we are putting into it is tiny in relation to the total water volume."
  4. On June 8, BP Chief Operating Officer Doug Suttles said that the spill "should be down to a relative trickle by Monday or Tuesday." According to the best scientific estimates, between 10,000 and 35,000 barrels of oil (420,000 to 1.5 million gallons) are still leaking into the Gulf daily. 
  5. Earlier, on May 17, BP stuck a siphon into the ruined riser pipe – collecting 1,000 barrels a day – leading Hayward to say: "I do feel that we have, for the first time, turned the corner in this challenge." That siphoning effort was later abandoned. 
  6. And on the weekend of June 19 Tony Hayward got his life back - sailing on his yacht 'Bob' in the clean waters off the English coast.
