Halliburton and the Gulf of Mexico Oil Spill

Although British Petroleum (BP) has drawn much of the media attention and public anger since the Deepwater Horizon oil rig explosion on April 20th, 2010, it is not the only company associated with the disaster. Such a complex operation typically requires the work of numerous different enterprises that focus their efforts on one or a few aspects of the project. Halliburton, an oil services company, is one of the corporations that had a hand in the Deepwater Horizon event.

Information about Halliburton’s Role

The circumstances surrounding the oil rig explosion and subsequent oil spill make it very difficult to conduct a thorough and conclusive investigation into the causes of the incident. There are many experts, however, who believe that Halliburton failed to adequately execute its responsibilities related to the pumping of cement slurry which was intended to insulate the pipe in the well and to prevent leakage.

Whether the process was conducted negligently or the cement was flawed, it appears likely that this may have been one of the most significant contributors to the disaster.
