Committed by American workers not following American work practices. You can blame the logo on the side of the platform all you like, it was still an American accident.

Would you like to hear what Vacuum/Standard/Exxon-Mobil have had to clean up in the ground around my local area since they fired up the refinery in 1918? Should i blame the head office in the US or the local workers here fucking up?

Not americans)
