HOUSTON — Attorneys for victims of the 2005 explosion at BP PLC’s Texas City refinery contend the oil giant’s fine could be as much as $3.2 billion, dwarfing the $50 million proposed in a plea agreement.
The proposed fines were included in court documents filed by victims’ attorneys last week at the request of a federal judge who is deciding whether to accept a plea deal from BP.
