Individual Reflective EvaluationConsidering the above discussion, I have been observed that organisations need to adhereto safety laws while rendering their services along with this they need to ensure that they havepolicies formulated by themselves so that safety and security is not compromised. It took time toanalyse different aspects associated with Deepwater Horizon oil spill and the role organisations,BP, Halliburton and Transocean has created. It was found that there were certain aspects whichlead to this tragedy. The Deepwater Horizon explosion resulted within senseless deaths as wellas immense environmental damage. As per my observations, I have found that Deepwater Horizon oil spill was one of thelargest offshore oil spill which has been occurred in history of America and it was initiated on20th April, 2010.

Near about, Bryde's whale were affectedby this spill which resulted in around 22% population loss this denotes that, it will take around69 years for recovering them.

I have acquiredknowledge with respect to be an effectual part within a group and also learn different aspectsassociated with project on the basis of their perceptions. Things went well as they were beingplanned but it lead us to acknowledge wider aspects associated with projects.
