U.S. government officials demanded to see BP Plc’s plans for opening its sealed Gulf of Mexico well after tests found a suspected leak seeping from the seabed.
In a letter addressed to Bob Dudley, BP managing director, National Incident Commander Thad Allen said tests had detected a “seep a distance from the well and undetermined anomalies at the well head.” The letter was posted yesterday on the website of the joint information center for the spill.
