I looked at that map and didnt see the dimension in black at all...it was cleverly done and easy to miss that larger width on the image.

Updated salt Dome Map

[link to www.edsuite.com]

 Quoting: Patassa


no, no, no, no, no. people have been publishing erroneous
information about the Texas Brine Cavern and the Napoleon Salt Dome ever since this fiasco started

what you have circled in red there is only the little bitty
Texas Brine Cavern. and, the Texas brine cavern is only one
of many caverns that have been carved out within the Napoleanville Salt Dome. below is a photograph of the actual
area of the Napoleanville Salt Dome and it is approx. 1 mile by 3 miles.

 Quoting: dr.einstein


It's the same map. The red outline IS the salt dome. And yes it is 1 by 3 miles. The cavern is just one of 57 caverns on the dome, and all the way to the left of the red line. Yes, I know that. And I didn't draw the line. GOHSEP did. Stop trolling me.

Also interesting to note the wording here..

State health officials say at least 14 medical visits for minor health issues have been attributed to a well spewing oil, gas, brine and other material in Paincourtville since a blowout last week.

Perhaps the drilling of this exploratory well is the REAL reason the dome was breached??

Update on Wisconsin underground explosion:

[link to www.waow.com]
 Quoting: RadChick


Are you thinking that all those booms that people keep hearing might be unground explosions that just haven't had a noticable effect above ground?
 Quoting: alexisj9


Matt Simmons had said that methane gas expansion can do so at supersonic speed, expanding in volume 7-10x...frozen methane HYDRATES will expand 178x in volume (Nils-Axl-Morner Syndrome)which are a mile thick in the GOM...we have expansion of invasive crude oil in the sinkhole from an unknown source, reactivation of BP leak, and boom events all near fault zones from one side of the country to the other, as well as earthquakes in weird places, especially in LA and now surrounding parishes, as well as GA and TX. It seems like there is pressure from SOMEWHERE...No one knows if these events are related, if they do they probably won't tell us...but if they are, how bad will it get? And my concern is 1) what people are breathing in the area right now (as fumes from crude oil more toxic than mustard gas per Matt Simmons) 2) blast radius if butane cavern explodes and how that will effect other caverns storing radioactive material and other hazardous things 3) subsequent pressure on not only the Mercondo site from possible blast, but the New Madrid Rift (which is capable of very large earthquakes) and 4) Nuke plants in all the effected areas having subsequent meltdowns as a result of 2 & 3. According to Jack Reed's Theory, this would mean every nuke plant from Mexico to Nova Scotia. Jack Reed's theory which makes way more sense than GOM being faultless bowl as USGS says it is: [link to www.aapg.org]

BTW a woman posting on my page stated the Glen Falls news report below is total bs from what her electrical journeyman husband said...something MAJOR happened to blow manhole covers off all over the town and damage buildings. He has worked at the underground utility site where the explosion occurred. They live in Glen Falls and have new sinkholes (although small -5 feet in dia or less) all over their property, so does the farmer next to them, appearing since July.

be allowed to drill 5 or 6 wells into the Macondo Reservoir

and stop the leak.

Re: Don't make ASSUMPTIONS; try to Understand.
Just watched the Jesse Ventura video about the planned depopulation of the Gulf - this is what I came up with:

BP Macondo drilling was done to breach a salt cavern - they drilled a lateral line and breached the cavern, then blew the rig up.

Waited for nature to take its course.

The oil from Macondo is now filling the cavern and causing the sink hole. (by the way, every sink hole I have ever seen was a gaping hole, not a filled cavern)

People will have to leave their beloved homes, as the area is no longer inhabitable. BP and other oil companies will move in and extract the now easily retrievable oil. They don't even have to drill for it now.

Only explanation for how the same oil found at BP Macondo is now in the salt cavern.

So Freedom, in that scenario, "they" would not be worried about an explosive event? The goal being a slow poisoning of the area so that the people move out, but no massive destruction of the coastal areas?

And, if this is part of the long term agenda -is it under their control?

Tropical Girl, they usually go for the slow kill. I don't know if there will be a huge explosion in the Gulf with so much off venting at the pressure points. I suspect the "earthquake" in Canada was an underground explosion. So many witnesses said there was a rumble, then the shaking, then a "Boom!"

AC4512574 - yes, the Dawgs have been right on everything, but I wasn't clear on HOW the salt dome was breached in relation to Macondo. The scenario I described is the only one that makes sense to me. Remember the calls from the crew to family members before the explosion? They knew something was going on, but said they had to get off the rig before they told their family. They never had the chance.

Okay- so admissions today as to what is in the area give a pretty good idea that the area is rich in resources so to speak..so taking in to account that the well blew out in 2010 BEFORE Texas Brine suspected their cavern was compromised...and the well was not only spewing oil and gas but BRINE as well...

this well may be the original cause of the cavern being breached.

Look at this picture..and then imagine drilling on an angle and...whoopsie....

Re: Don't make ASSUMPTIONS; try to Understand.
Ultimately it means that there are people with BIG MONEY invested in the resources in this area...waiting for a payout. They will still do anything they can to get their moneys worth.

But the gas is going to their problem.

And the fact that this problem has been growing silently underground since 2010....think about it...the cavern had 1500 ft of hydrocarbon /shale mix at the bottom....that means the cavern has accumulated material that is now over 470 metres deep!... Thats NINE AND A HALF olympic swimming pools stacked length for length one on top of the other...

What happens when these five or six other wells cannot be capped either, something the pressure thread was trying to address? I don't know the solution, but alot of wise people here who don't co-opt the name Einstein - They are pondering the solutions, but in the mean time, those people in the LA danger zone need to be relocated at the expense of the oil man and politicians who allowed this mess. Their safety is the first issue. The second step is what every one here beside dr e is trying to do, consider all the variables(and there are many)and proceed cautiously...

Thinking before you act is a wise course of action.

well, i just thought it out for you.
BP and Transocean are the only ones on the planet
with the technology to fix this thing....
maybe you should start planning a "welcome home" parade
through downtown New Orleans for them :)

Re: Don't make ASSUMPTIONS; try to Understand.
We have also arranged things so that almost no one understands science and technology. This is a prescription for disaster. We might get away with it for a while, but sooner or later this combustible mixture of ignorance and power is going to blow up in our faces.

Re: Don't make ASSUMPTIONS; try to Understand.
The strategic alliance between Synthetic Genomics, Inc (SGI) and ExxonMobil Research and Engineering Company (EMRE), represents a comprehensive research and development agreement to explore the most efficient and cost effective ways to produce next generation biofuels using photosynthetic algae.

Algae can be grown using land and water unsuitable for crop plant or food production, unlike some other first and second generation biofuel feedstocks.

Algae yield greater volumes of biofuel per acre of production than other crop plant -based biofuel sources. Algae could yield more than 2000 gallons of fuel per acre of production per year. Approximate yields for other fuel sources are far lower. Examples include:

Palm - 650 gallons per acre / year
Sugar cane - 450 gallons per acre / year
Corn - 250 gallons per acre / year
Soy - 50 gallons per acre / year

Could this be the plan for the future Gulf coast states? Algae Farms?
