the Deepwater Horizon rig was drilling into what BP itself
considered a very small deposit of oil5000 feet down.
You could stop and wonder why they went to the expense
and trouble of doing that for little or no return
on an estimated 100 million barrels.

Oh, and it was 5000 ft down to the ocean floor. it was another 3-5 miles before it hit the reserve.

In an interview by Andrea Mitchell a few minutes ago on Mitchell’s MSNBC show, Senator Bill Nelson of Florida, who has been one of the most informed and diligent, if not the most informed and diligent, Congressmen on the BP Gulf Oil Spill issue, stated he had reports there is oil and gas leaking from the seabed surrounding the BP Macondo well in the Mississippi Canyon sector of the Gulf. This is potentially huge and devastating news.

" 100 mile long river of black oil 400 ft. high on/above sea floor........a hurricane will cause the affected areas to become totally black"........Simmons on Ratigan Show just now.

oil floats so how is this oil staying on the bottom.
dispersants.


Not true. As I mentioned in my thread.

Someone asked whether the deepwater plumes form because of dispersant use at the wellhead or whether this material is settling down from surface waters into the deepwater, again because of dispersant. Considering the plume trajectories, they appear to derive from the wellhead. We do not believe they form from the sinking of oil that was once on the surface. However, that does not mean the plumes are generated because of dispersant use. Quite the contrary, plumes like these most likely form through natural processes. At the temperature and pressure of the reservoir, methane is dissolved in the oil. When the fluid is expelled at the seafloor, the methane comes out of solution in a fairly violent manner. This gas expulsion likely fractionates the oil and it is this fractionation that generates the diffuse oil in the plumes. This process is described in the NRC (2003) report that is given on the resources page of the blog. Please let me know if you’d like a more detailed description of this.

i meant the oil they had already put dispersants on. hell, there's too many plumes now for them to toxify it all.

I distinctly remember looking at an ROV cam pointed at a chasm in the bottom of the ocean floor with oil billowing out from it.

THUNDER HORSE is the main oil deposit it's BP's BIGGIE.

Now if TH was leaking BP might need some
diversion to attract people's attention away from
it while they worked to attempt to fix the problem.

My guess is BP may have blown Macondo for that purpose.
And they would have known in advance that it was
impossible to pipe the oil up from 5000 feet down....
never been done before ( according to the experts)
so they may have 'rigged' it to blow


Most of the oil spill out there in the Gulf is likely
from Thunder Horse not Macondo.

Serious Doom



Sound theory. Thanks for posting.


Yep, thats a possibility. Is there anyway to find out if oil is coming out of the thunderhorse area. And when did BP drill there. I"m guessing just before the macondo drilling.

"if hes right....wheres the proof

if true The Oil Drum and msm would be all over this with pics and video

so far we have not seen squat

in other words you cant hide something like this"


STU: the "proof" we need is far beneath the surface, and needless to say you or i have no way to probe those depths in order to blow the whistle on this. and wouldn't you expect there to be a massive dispersant operation in that region, to conceal the size of the secret spill until the last possible minute?

of course, all THAT would do is buy time, but short term fixes are the order of the day now. personally, i think there is a strong liklihood of a huge terror attack soon- because there's really nothing else that could overshadow the death blow this spill will have dealt by the end of the year.

we are dealing with desperate, devious bastards and a public that for the most part WANTS to be lied to by them, much as a little child would prefer hollow reassurances to some scary truth.

Let's face it ... this shit can not be stopped / plugged / capped.: Gasp: yep if we where not so addicted to oil it would never Have Happened. Massive Deregulation Was the real cause of this, just as it has-been with everything else That has gone wrong. [/ quote]

whatever people dont drill 4-5 miles down for oil because of deregulation.



No but when there's an "accident" (wink wink) and proper safety measures haven't been taken due to deregulation, you get this fxckin mess.

Hmmm... CNN has a story on this actor, Waterston, who is aparently an expert on the environment and oil because he grew up in New England and serves on "the board of an international ocean conservation organization."

He says he has always opposed offshore drilling... and this oil spill should be a huge wake-up call.

I think he should go play Sherlock and STFU.

The real wake-up call should be that news networks have been plying the Sheeple with useless experts and give air-time to actors who have no f.....g clue what they are talking about.

I heard Mike Malloy previewing his show on the way home. He mentioned this. Also said the BP cam-feed did not revela that they had "stopped work" for many hours. Must've been referring to the other week, when they waited for the stock market to close.

So Malloy's making noise BP has been lying all along and may never have been showing the real leak(s). Good. let it get into the mainstream. These a-holes took out a hit on the Gulf states. They know a particularly harsh hurricane season is forecasted. What if that crap blows up on land and ruins farmalnd, too?

It is the largest or 2nd largest deposit of oil/gas ever found. To quote one engineer "Energy shortage hell!! We are worried that there isn't enough oxygen to burn it all "

This thing has been spewing over 4 million gallons per day into the gulf since the beginning and has already dumped around 200 million gallons so far. The crazy low numbers that BP has been feeding the sheep is based on surface oil while they use dispersants to keep 95% of it below the surface.
