A glossy “Lessons Learned” document released Thursday by BP describes the Deepwater Horizon blowout and oil spill as a valuable spur for innovation in containing future oil- rig failures.

The 72-page document highlights new technologies, new work systems and a new spirit of collaboration that it says came out of the period when raw crude from the April 20 blowout flowed into the Gulf of Mexico.

Today, BP was expected to begin the process of removing the cap and failed blowout preventer from its ruptured well, another step toward completion of a relief well that would seal the leak permanently.
