Anyway, I can switch back and forth to both camera views simply by scrolling my mouse up and down...the actual internet page doesnt move, just the video screen, OK...jaysus eff...it has stopped allowing me to do so now...but that is what it WAS doing....and I am not on hallucinagenics.... I tried to screencap it and it only pasted the LIVE feed into my photoshop, which has NEVER happened before when screencapping a live feed. Now the screens are black! All sorts of crazy stuff happening to me as well. I switched to Google Chrome and it stopped doing that but all the videos are squished. |

The link you gave is very helpful. Do you happen to know what size the one we're looking at is in comparison to the one in the link? |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 981941 United States 06/03/2010 02:17 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | This aint going to work. How can that pincher cut through the pipe and drill? It doesnt have a clean cut. Wont it just squeeze/crimp the pipe? WHat happens if i doesnt cut through thepipe but just crimps it? WOnt the back blast fuck the BOP up? |

My guess to have a cleaner cut with out the weight hanging off the side of it for the diamond cutter. Thus giving it a smother and cleaner cut. I am only speculating here. |

I'm pretty sure they will be cutting the riser just above the flange so they can put the top hat on it instead of the lmrp cap that was supposed to seat upon the clean cut riser. Shoot...they also mentioned using the valves they used to inject the mud in reverse and suck the oil and gas up that way. I wonder why they aren't doing that now? They could crimp it closed and use the valves instead. |
