thanks for that, even though it makes my head hurt.

the linked Bloomberg article has an interesting comments section, my current fave: "Hmmm...we can either blame the accident on the culture of corruption, the self-regulatory environment of deepwater drilling, the focus on cost containment over even the most rudimentary safety precautions, the use of drilling mud when heavier concrete was called for, the lack of a remote shutoff, and BP and Halliburton's cavalier attitude towards human life -- or we can blame it on the dude who took a smoke break long after the explosion was already inevitable. Gosh, it's so hard to decide between these two equally significant factors."
