Brazil regulator says Chevron could have avoided spill
RIO DE JANEIRO (Reuters) - Brazil oil regulator ANP said U.S. oil company Chevron Corp could have avoided an oil spill at its offshore Frade field in November if it had done a better job interpreting geological data, the regulator's director Magda Chambriard said on Thursday.
The regulator said fines would be announced within 30 days, based on its final report.
