The costs associated with the Deepwater Horizon oil spill are rising and CEO Tony Hayward may soon be out of a job, but BP's second-quarter profits will likely be strong, thanks in large part to higher crude prices.
BP is trying to raise $50 billion to cover the expense of the Deepwater Horizon spill. Costs to clean up the oil so far have hit $1.4 billion and that the total is expected to be $3 billion to $6 billion -- which will further weigh down BP's stock price.
