Terry Barr, President of Samson Oil and Gas, had strong words for BP regarding the April 2010 rig explosion, fire, and leak from a ruptured exploration well in the Gulf of Mexico. Barr stated in a July 11, 2010 Wall Street Journal editorial that the oil disaster was about human, not system, failure, mentioning several “red flags” that were ignored by BP.
