From the Podium: The Cause of BP's Macondo Blowout

Buch

Über den Autor


J.A. (John) Turley leans on his pre-retirement career as a petroleum engineer, professor, ocean engineer, and offshore drilling expert to escort his readers, if only vicariously, into the esoteric world of offshore exploration drilling. It is a world the media seemingly focuses on only when a headline opportunity is driven by death, fire, oil spill, or the price of gasoline. But it's far more than that, because the people out there, on the rigs, are real, with goals and aspirations, and families, and communities, and long shifts, and mandatory responsibilities, and a 24/7 awareness that safety comes first. For everybody. Well-maybe not everybody, because there are those who will kill to prove neither life nor truth is bulletproof. The Turley family lives in Littleton, Colorado.
