~Anadarko won't pay big bill sent by BP
~Anadarko Petroleum Corp. won't pay the $272 million in oil spill related costs that BP billed it for last month. The Woodlands-based company has a 25 percent nonoperating stake in the Macondo oil well gushing in the Gulf of Mexico.
The company has argued that it's not responsible for costs arising from an operating partner's "negligence" or "willfull misconduct" — something it accuses BP of in relation to the spill.
