BREAKING - Gulf Oil Spill is Releasing Methane - I said it then and now is confirmed 5000:1

Isn't methane gas one of the theories used to explain ships disappearing in the Bermuda Triangle. Pretty darn close to the spill, isn't it?

There is a lot of it there. This is from a Baylor website.

The U.S Department of Energy (DOE) has awarded a Baylor University researcher more than $270,000 to search a portion of the Gulf of Mexico for a massive source of hydrocarbon energy called methane hydrate, the main ingredient of natural gas.

Dr. John Dunbar, an associate professor of geology at Baylor, will use a new search method to acquire geophysical data of the site, located roughly 200 miles off the Mississippi coast, in hopes of providing a detailed map of where the methane hydrate is located, how often the gas "seeps through" and the volume that is underneath the seafloor.

Called the Mississippi Canyon, the site is about 3,000 feet wide and about 3,000 feet under water. It also has both active and dormant gas vents. Other academic institutions have been researching the site since 2001, but have not been able to ascertain where the hydrate is located nor how much is there.

"Methane hydrate sources, such as the one in Mississippi Canyon, could provide a major portion of our energy source for the future," Dunbar said. "Methane is also used as a feedstock for plastics, fertilizers, etc. We are going to need hydrocarbons for the foreseeable future."

They are not saying much about this whole mess and that is what worries me.

The Methane deposit is 200 miles off shore, 3,000 feet wide and 3,000 feet deep.....

But then they say they can not determine how big it is.

The oil that is flooding into the Gulf of Mexico is creating an orange and red slick. It looks like blood, seriously. Makes me wonder what the composition is because I doubt it is mostly raw crude oil, which is tar black.

It may be a two way scenario...
(1) Nuke it closed to prevent the undeniable damage
(2) Let the methane build to explosive concentrations.

One thing that concerns me about the dome that is lowered. It was squared. Under severe pressures, it should be rounded like a real dome.

Think about this, the dome box is not what we are told it is. It is a large nuclear weapon designed to blast downwards. The device is large to obtain the depth needed and to aid in directing the blast down.

Just when the dome gets to the location, the coast guard bans ship/air travel.

I really think that dome may be a nuclear device. It may be a massive fucker too. Reasons are this, the pressures down there are very high and that requires more explosive power to counter act the pressures. And yet even more explosive power would be needed to counter the oils gushing pressures. And they may only have one shot at this. So a large Mega-ton nuclear device may be the last solution and they are running out of conventional ideas.

Time is running out!



I thin you are on to something here. A nuclear shape charge.......This would be VERY terrible.

hadn't "they" just about decided that the weird stuff that goes on in the Bermuda Triangle, is a result of methane escaping from the ocean floor..that the methane rises to the surface and engulfs whatever it encounters, which then unbalances floating ships and even planes as it rises out of the water and into the air...this situation in the Gulf is one very frightening situation...I've worked to save oil slicked birds/animals...not a fun thing to do or see...

I'm convinced it was not just methane but methane HYDRATE.

.

This is no laughing matter as scientists know methane explosions have happen before and can be very, very large. Thousands of times in magnitude of the largest nuclear bomb built by the Russians.

You bring up a VERY good point which really debunks the methane leak we are being told about.

Methane when it releases frm the bottom of the ocean floor and rises as a bubble (or air for that matter but methane is much worse) changes the boyancy properties of the water. It seperates the water molecules with gas particules which in turn makes the ships unable to float and they sink. They sink VERY quickly straight down at almost 4 times the speed of what something the same mass would sink in water under normal circumstances.

It can cause airplanes to fall right out of the sky too.

*IF* a large methane bubble escapped the ocean floor and went stright up *AND* and aircraft was flying and ran into it it would fall until it reached air again to obtain lift.

This is because methane is much heavier than air, therefore no lift or glide can be accomplished. The aircrafts forward intertia would have to be sufficient to get to the edge of the methane, and it would have to exit the methane cloud at enough altitude to regain lift and thrust.


I just realized I am a huge nerd. LOL

Another Craptastic post ;)
Patiently waiting for confirmation. If this is true an unchecked runaway methane volcano would be serious doom.

A methane release could explain why the rig sank. Considering the rig had two massive pontoon things keeping it a float. Both would have to fail equally for it to sink. I never heard of the rig sitting sideways before sinking.

Why did the rig land on top of the well leak? Because it was gushing methane which provided a faster sinking. And the rig would naturally fall in the methane bubble area since the water outside of it is denser and would push the rig right back into the methane bubbled water.

That is how the rig landed on top of the well!!!!

Damn, I think that's it!!!

The rig is not on top of the well.

The methane hypothesis has been extensively discussed in many early threads.

CRAP, have you read the fisherman's account? What he describes is characteristic of unanticipated amounts of methane coming up the stream. The thread is here...just skip the first couple pages of BS...

Thread: Hyundai built BP Oil Rig explosion was an accident!! Proof! (Page 5)

Seriously, SHR was right about methane causing the explosion, read his post.

And then it hit me, the Rig sank from methane release. Which would drop the rig on top of the location the methane was being released from.

What burned the big hole in the aluminum helideck...from the top? I'll look for the link....

Methane gas under very high pressures that caught fire. Like placing fuel in a power washer, lighting it and spraying 1 inch from drywall.

I imagine the massive methane tourch blew the hole.

The photo shows it was burned "downward" towards the sea?

It's my opinion that this new "story" that is being released(since yesterday, BTW) was cooked up during the closed door meeting with Obambi and BP last week.

Reporters were refused access, if I remember right.


It was the House Energy and Commerce Committee, and it was BP, TansOcean, and Halliburtion that was there. Get the facts straight then argue you point.
