Transocean, states agree to $30M-plus compensation for 2010 Gulf oil spill

2015-10-30 08:32:36| Oil & Gas - Topix.net

The five Gulf of Mexico states reach a settlement with Transocean , the owner of the offshore drilling rig involved in the 2010 BP oil spill, leading to the official dismissal of federal lawsuits against the company. Alabama Gov. Bentley said last week that RIG would pay the state $20M to resolve legal claims; documents from the other states this week indicate Louisiana will get $4M, Texas $2M and Florida $5M, while Mississippi's share has not been released.
