Anadarko Petroleum Corp., the Texas company that owns a stake in BP Plc’s damaged Macondo well in the Gulf of Mexico, said it’s “prepared to come to the table” to resolve disputed costs from last year’s oil spill.

Anadarko has filed a lawsuit blaming BP for the explosion at Macondo on April 20, 2010, and the record offshore U.S. oil spill that followed. BP is seeking billions of dollars from Anadarko in spill-related costs for its interest in the project.
