BP partner blames company for apparent negligence

BP@@@s three-front oil spill war — on the seafloor, on the Gulf Coast and in Congress — turned into a four-front battle Friday when its main partner in the damaged exploration well blamed the oil giant@@@s "reckless decisions and actions" for causing a disaster that was "preventable."
It was the first time since the blowout in the Gulf of Mexico that Anadarko Petroleum had given its view of the accident, and its chief executive, Jim Hackett, did not mince words. In a statement, Hackett said he was "shocked" by information that has emerged from investigations of the accident. He said it "indicates BP operated unsafely and failed to monitor and react to several critical warning signs during the drilling of the Macondo well."
Anadarko@@@s statement contrasted with the testimony of BP@@@s chief executive, Tony Hayward, who told a congressional committee Thursday that it was too soon to reach conclusions about the disaster@@@s causes.
