BP Atlantis data threat

摘要

Advocacy group, Food and Water Watch claims engineering documentation on Gulf of Mexico facility 'inadequate for safe operations.' Attack highlights potential upstream data 'Achilles heel.' Action this month by US consumer advocacy group, 'Food & Water Watch' (FWW) highlights what might prove to be the oil industry's data 'Achilles heel,' with the charge that BP's 'Atlantis' Gulf of Mexico production facility 'lacks the documentation needed for safe operations and maintenance.' FWW has asked the regulator, the Department of the Interior's Minerals Management Service (MMS) to 'immediately suspend production' on the facility, one of the largest in the world, pending 'further investigation of documents critical to the project's safe operation and maintenance.'
