Yeah I saw also that the emergency shut-off valve (whatever name they call it in oil speak) had failed and it should have clamped it shut as soon as the incident occured. They sent down a robot sub to try to make it activate but it failed to do so.
It's unthinkable that anyone would be allowed to drill on the sea floor without redundant emergency shut off's. But there ya go. Hard to predict the unknown I guess.
