Chief of oil spill inquiry sees no proof BP skimped on safety to save money

Fred Bartlit, lead counsel for the presidential panel, says that so far the panel agrees with ’90 percent’ of a BP report into the causes of the explosion and sinking of the Deepwater Horizon drilling rig. The chief attorney for the presidential panel investigating the gulf oil spill said Monday that he had found no proof that BP sacrificed safety to save money as it drilled its Macondo well, contradicting earlier assertions made in other government investigations of the disaster.
