Feds to investigate owner of latest Gulf rig to explode


Posted on Sep 03, 2010

The government agency that regulates offshore drilling is going to investigate the cause of Thursday morning’s rig explosion in the Gulf of Mexico. All 13 workers were safely evacuated from the Vermillion Oil Rig 380 after it was engulfed in flames. The platform is owned by Mariner Energy Inc. of Houston. The company is under scrutiny  as it has been connected to numerous Gulf accidents in the past four years, reports the Los Angeles Times. A former division of Enron, Mariner has the attention of federal regulators and has already paid $55,000 this year for violations.
