BP boss Dudley says oil clean-up will be scaled back

Help

Incoming BP chief executive Bob Dudley has said it is time to scale back some parts of the oil spill clean-up in the Gulf of Mexico.

Virtually no oil has been released into the Gulf since a new cap was closed on 15 July.

And skimming crews have reported only tiny quantities of oil out at sea.
