BP says it has sold up to 7- Bbilllion Dollars in assets to rival Apache Corporation to help it pay for the Gulf of Mexico oil slick. BP will sell-off oil and gas facilities in the US, Canada, and Egypt. The total cost of cleaning up the slick and compensating communities in the Gulf is expected to cost much more than that.
