If you understood the partnerships involved w/ the big 5 oil companies of the world, you would understand that none of them will ever go bankrupt as long as oil is our number 1 energy source.
These guys are together in just about every field on the planet, be it in production or service work or refining, they are all tied together.
Comparing todays British Petroleum to Texaco of the 80's is nonsens. The BP of today is 10x larger than Texaco ever dreamed of being.
Exxon's fine in Alaska was only 150million and that is still the biggest fine ever handed down to a producer on a spill.
I just think people are just on a witch hunt becaue they hate the oil companies cuz they are THE DEBIL.

Hopes and dreams.... BP won't ever get close to bankruptsy.
