摘要

BP's desperate and extremely costly ($3.5 bn and counting) efforts to cap its rogue well in the Gulf of Mexico are expected finally to yield positive results in the next two or so weeks. The latest cap lowered onto the damaged riser at the Macondo prospect seems to have worked, blocking off the uncontrolled flow of oil completely and guiding the oil flow to the collector vessels on the surface, while one of the two relief wells that BP is drilling to cut off the leaking well is in the immediate vicinity of the well bore. Stemming the leaking well, however, is not the end of the story, for the Obama administration's re-worded ban on exploratory drilling in US waters is likely to be reinstated after the recent appeal court ruling against it. The new ban is expected to last till the 30th November, but it may well be extended into next year and obviously the longer it lasts the greater its impact on US oil supplies. We have assumed that a nine-month ban would lead to a loss of 200,000 bpd of US oil production, with a 15% probability of this occurring.
