Summary

The US offshore industry has been hit by the disastrous oil spill, which has become the worst oil spill of the century. With expected liabilities of more than $50 billion, the oil spill has teh potential to change the US offshore industry as a whole. The spill has been catastrophic, to the extent that the US government has been forced to announce and impose tougher regulations and policies for US offshore deep water drilling and field services. This has led to uncertainty in the US offshore industry related to the risks and costs required for deepwater drilling once the stricter regulations are in place. In addition, the moratorium will hamper production in the Gulf of Mexico as well as other areas. This incident is also going to have serious implications for BP Plc's oil & gas business.
