This is a securities fraud class action on behalf of all persons who purchased or otherwise acquired the common stock of Transocean Ltd. (“Transocean” or the “Company”) between August 5, 2009 and May 7, 2010, inclusive (the “Class Period”). This action is brought against Transocean and one of its senior officers and/or directors for violations of § § 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“1934 Act”) and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder in connection with the dissemination of false and misleading statements about the Company’s deficient safety protocols, recurring blowout preventer (“BOP”) problems, and its operating and safety record. 2. Transocean is an owner and/or operator of approximately 140 mobile offshore drilling units. During the Class Period, defendants falsely represented that Transocean had remedied its past safety problems and was closely monitoring the Company’s operating and equipment, while omitting to disclose material information concerning Transocean’s repeated safety failures and recurring BOP issues. Defendants falsely represented that the Company’s BOP problems “have all been resolved,” and that BOP issues were “anomalies,” concealing that the Company had not eliminated BOP issues nor rectified the prior BOP failures.

  • Deepwater Disaster: How the Oil Spill Estimates Got It Wrong
    Best guess versus worst case Deepwater disaster: how the oil spill estimates got it wrong “There is no crude emanating from that riser.” Then the official estimate was 1000 barrels a day, then 5000. The true figure was 58 000 barrels of oil a day leaking into the Gulf of Mexico. Why did the authorities so consistently underestimate the flow from the Deepwater disaster, and what damage did those underestimates do? Ian MacDonald reveals the smoking gun behind BP’s erroneous statistics. On April 20th, 2010, the explosion and sinking of a consequential variable in the ongoing emergency: the semi-submersible drilling rig called Deepwater Horizon discharge rate of oil: that is, the number of barrels of oil killed 11 people and initiated a furious eruption of oil per day gushing into the ocean far below the surface. and gas from BP’s Macando well, which was located Official reports on the release and discharge rates in 1500 m of water 75 km southeast of Grand Island, were issued by authorities of the Unified Command, Louisiana. The discharge was virtually unabated for which was an often uneasy alliance between BP and 84 days until a steel cap was installed and successfully the US government represented by no less than four closed, staunching the flow completely, on 15th July. cabinet-level departments (of Commerce, Energy, Emergency operations continued around the clock to Homeland Security, and the Interior). Unfortunately, it drill a second, intercepting, shaft and install a final plug took these authorities a very long time to get the rate into the bottom of the blown-out well.
