The Obama administration seeks to defend a new offshore drilling moratorium after a court setback, arguing it reflects safety concerns and different rig technologies. Plaintiffs warn it may still conflict with Judge Feldman’s order as they review the plan and consider legal challenges. Hornbeck Offshore and other plaintiffs weigh options as they question the new moratorium’s consistency and scope.

Retired Adm Thad Allen says the cap could halt most oil flow by sealing the well or diverting it to ships while BP drills relief wells. Officials monitor pressure, plan valve closures, and conduct seismic surveys as the 84 day disaster nears a potential final fix. Oil estimates range from 90.4 to 178.6 million gallons.
