BP isn’t going to let a little oil spill prevent it from going after more deepwater opportunities in the Gulf of Mexico. This week, in the first auction of Gulf leases since the Deepwater Horizon explosion, 20 oil companies bid for blocks; BP bid on 15 leases and won 11, for which it will pay $27M.
According to the Huffingtonpost, as of last October, said it spent $11.2 billion so far in cleanup, which began April.
