Re: This is it!! Moving in with Cap now!!
You can`t tell me BP hasn`t tried to suck some of the oil up yet..They know it`s not going to work and if it does work I`m guessing it might get 20% of the oil instead of 80 to 90 like they were shooting for..This is so fricken tragic it just makes me sick...In this age and time we should be able to shut this thing down in a heart beat regardless of how deep it is...waiting till august with a flow like this just isn`t a option...can`t be

Re: This is it!! Moving in with Cap now!!
The world's BIGGEST oil disaster have happened ... but BP would rather not talk about it ... EXTRA scary!!!
 Quoting: kobratelefon


Actually, the Kuwait Gulf spill is the worst 500,000,000 gallons

I would say this is more than they are saying but not this much yet..

I would stick with the velocimetry experts numbers being 4 million gallons per day

4,000,000 gallons/day x 46 days = 184,000,000 gallons

2nd largest ever and still going for 3 - 6 months...

90 days(3mos) = 360,000,000 gallons
180 days(6mos) = 720,000,000 gallons

But another thing to think about, that was his estimate before they cut the riser and now alot more is coming out..

Who knows at this point..

Re: This is it!! Moving in with Cap now!!
are there any reliable numbers on how many oil is leaking out per day?


I would think the Purdue University figures are the closest to the truth. But the leak is much worse now so those numbers need to be updated.

BP wont say how much oil is coming out...and they are the only ones that really know the truth.
 Quoting: TheWholeTruth


so 95.000 barrels a day is nearly correct?

a 100000 barrels a day spill = is complete rubbish its more in the like of 7000 barrels a day i think . 100000 barrels =7.4 million a day without pumping ????????? thats almost 3 billion $ a year from 1 rig ?????? dont forget that the pumps arnt working now .

BP earns a PROFIT of 2 Billion per month... thats NET profit.

This is thought to be the 2nd largest Well in the World.


I think if this well could have made more than 3 billion in year in gross earnings easily.

 Quoting: TheWholeTruth


Wow totally untrue...They have no clue how much oil is in here...This was an exploratory drill and noone has put numbers on it...

And 7000/day??? LMFAO are you stoned?

They were sucking up 5000/bpd at one point and you couldnt even tell the difference, and that was one leak..

According to Purdue Mechanical Engineering Professor and velocimetry expert, there are 4,000,000 gallons per day at least for 31 days and still going..

4,000,000 gallons x 46 days = 184,000,000 gallons so far
