• Jimmy Harrell : The pressure test costs about what, a hundred and fifteen thousand? BP is a thirty three billion dollar company, and you say you can't afford...

  Vidrine : That is why we are a thirty SIX billion dollar company, because we worry about all those bills.

  Jimmy Harrell : I worry about my rig! My people live on it. You just rent it!

• Jimmy Harrell : Don, you and I both know we need some downtime for maintenance. Mike, how many of our machines need repair?

  Mike Williams : Uh... 390, Mr. Jimmy.

  Vidrine : 390?

  Mike Williams : Yes, sir. Almost ten perecent of all the machinery aboard.

  Vidrine : Name a few for me.

  Mike Williams : A few?

  Vidrine : Mm-hm. I would love to hear exactly what piece of mission-critical equipment are down.

  Mike Williams : Shit, where do I start? "A" drilling chair. Process Station 18. BOP control pods. Telephone system. Pipe-racking system. GPS antenna. DirecTV system. Wireless Internet. Iron roughneck. Top drive rack back system. Auxiliary-draw works control. Salt water service pumps. Smoke alarms in the galley. And the reason why you're sweatin' so hard is 'cause the compressor for the AC on this deck are down, too.

  Kaluza : Everything but the toilets, huh?

  Mike Williams : No, no, you got problems there, too, but I don't do shitters. That's Engineering.

  Vidrine : Who are you?

• Jimmy Harrell : Listen, you mind losing that tie?

  O'Bryan : I would.

  Jimmy Harrell : It's not the tie. It's, uh... it's the color.

  O'Bryan : Purple?

  Jimmy Harrell : Uh... more magenta.

  O'Bryan : And?

  Jimmy Harrell : Well, magenta alarm on an oil rig is as bad as it gets. That's worthy of superstition.

• Jimmy Harrell : Walk with me, Mike.

  Mike Williams : Where we headed?

  Jimmy Harrell : To murder some BP company men.

  Mike Williams : Shit, I got hammer, screwdriver.

• Jimmy Harrell : Say, Mike, did you brush your teeth this morning?

  Mike Williams : Uh, yes, sir.

  Jimmy Harrell : Boy, did you floss?

  Mike Williams : Uh, no. No. Why?

  Jimmy Harrell : Save you a lot of pain and money in the long run, I'll tell you.

• Jimmy Harrell : [Picking up a phone after chewing out the BP executives for bypassing an important procedure in the drilling process and complaining about the numerous problems with the oil rig itself]  Hey, a dial tone! Day's looking up.
