Looks like the ROV is in a tornado.

that's what i thought too, that it had taken on a whirlwind movement instead of the gushing. it's like the the force just intensified a whole lot. seems like that may mean something just fell apart in there and let it fly. that well head is toast.

Cam 2. It look like something just blew. All you could see is white

It looked like they put a fan on it and the stuff blew everywhere, whats up with that?

Re: oil coming from below the wellhead now
They're using some sort of thruster to blow the oil out of the way so they can close those valves on top. Thats what it looks like to me.

yea I saw that

never seen those pipes before

not sure wtf those are?
 Quoting: ^TrInItY^


The cap thingy (that's a technical term) has 4 vents. They are closing those vents over the next few days (according to BP's site).

Looks to me like they just partially close another vent (cam #2).

Re: oil coming from below the wellhead now
After looking at the Ocean Intervention III cam, that is blowing a SHIT TON of oil! They're capturing 25k/day at the surface now. But seriously, I have little doubt that thing right now is blowing close to a 100k/day. That's just friggin nuts.
