BP Says Leaking Macondo Oil Well To Be Permanently Sealed This Month

The derrick rises from the floor of the Transocean Ltd. Development Driller II rig, which is drilling a relief well at the BP Plc Macondo site in the Gulf of Mexico off the coast of Louisiana, U.S., on Saturday, Aug. 7, 2010. BP plans to finish drilling into the base of the Macondo well this week to pump in mud and cement and permanently plug the source of the world's biggest offshore accidental oil spill, which has spewed an estimated 4.9 million barrels of crude oil since the Deepwater Horizon drilling rig exploded on April 20.
