The riser pipe was 5000 ft long, when the rig blew up it became detached, and fell to the sea bed, one part is an open end, and the other part also eaking is when it bent over from vertical to horizontal, and cracked open in 6 or so places.

They claimed the 21" pipe has 2" sidewalls...CAN'T KINK!?

Dumb question...

I'm having to switch back and forth between the live
feed and the forum.

How can I get the live feed window to stick so that
I don't have to jump from one to the other?

TIA!

OMG!!! I was the original poster of this thread, went to have a snack and 8 pages of threads already! damn!!!

I wish I hadn't missed all the action!

Bye the way, I don't know if I mentioned this but before I saw them trying to line up the saw earlier, they had the camera on a real gusher of hole somewhere else, so I don't know if we are seeing two different situations going on, but something is not right.....

I'm watching the CNN feed. I always thought the video time stamp was right under the date on the right side, but this time looks off, it reads 06:18:40, which could mean this is a recording of what went on hours ago. So we are getting "delayed" live feed!!?

BP suspended drilling on the second of two relief wells intended to permanently seal the damaged well from the bottom, so that its blowout preventer will be available should the top kill fail, Suttles said.

In that event, BP will saw off a section of crimped pipe from the top of the blowout preventer of the leaking well, install the second blowout preventer atop the first, and close its valves to halt the leak.

That will take several days, and in the interim, engineers plan to cover the sawn-off pipe with a temporary cap designed to direct some of the oil to a ship on the surface, Suttles said.

see it's that easy, folks hiding
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 952982


So that was the sawing about ...

Well I hope they will have better crew to control the handles,
otherwise its going to take till X-mass till the pipe is of !!!

They should have done this the next day after the explosion ..
that way the sea would have been much less poluded and all.
THEY JUST MESSED UP and took more time then was needed.
Let a court sentence them for jail !
BP and the governement did not ALL that was needed in the moment, they lost to much time and are therefore guilty off POLUTION and not acting fast and concrete enough !

(Or ... they did so becoz there IS an agenda and playbook to live up to )
