Curious Timing for this story to break.

It's AP, so here's the headline.

Only 13 people were on the platform that exploded today, pretty hard for them to watch over the whole thing 24/7.
13 people in the water, 12 life vests. All huddled together, all were rescued in great shape, fire extinguished, oil slick rumor was just that as Coast Guard reported none exists.
No major international incident. Everything contained.

Suck on it 0bama, suuuuuuck it long and hard you commie...

"Not producing" does not equal "Dry well," FWIW.

But, doesn't not producing mean they weren't pumping? In my definition no product means just that. Not that they're just not drilling.

Nothing new today?  I can't find anything...

Pretty much does mean not pumping, usually.  Oil companies take rigs on and off line for extended periods all the time for various reasons, especially low-producing ones.  Has a lot to do with the commodity price of whatever kind of crude it pumps.
