Kevin Costner will have a role to play in the cleanup of the Gulf of Mexico.

A spokesman for BP says the company has contracted with the actor and a company called Ocean Therapy Solutions to use 32 of their centrifuge machines. They are designed to separate oil from water.

The BP spokesman says, "We recognized they had potential and put them through testing." He says the testing was done in shallow and deep water, and that the company was "very pleased by the results."

Costner has tens of millions of dollars invested in the centrifuge. He has said it can clean oil from more than 200-thousand gallons of water a day.
