Sure but how will that make money for the well operator? I understand what you're saying, but what actual legal/political/economic framework are we talking about?
Right now the operators have to pay for the storage as far as I know. The game is not about making money, but at least not losing. That's why I'm afraid that some people would rather make an environmental disaster than to pay for a company to store the oil. But of course I don't know anything about the oil industry.
