Another shuffle, new reporting relationships and a promise to do better. BP insiders will say these announcements are now typical of the oil and gas giant, built out of the former British Petroleum and AMOCO, with no guarantee that these are effective changes. In the US, BP's problems with refinery safety led to 15 deaths at Texas City in 2005.A major investigation, leadership changes and promises to do better followed. Now, with 11 deaths and billions of dollars in loss and damage in the Gulf of Mexico deep-sea drilling operations, there are more promises. T&T's Occupational Safety and Health Authority (OSHA) should be watching bpTT, if only to see if lessons are actually being learnt.
