Breaching Through Napoleon Salt Dome? The Smoking Gun. Holy smokes! I think I found the smoking gun!! Quoting: El Quisqueyano This excerpt is from a USGS publication. It states as follows; Hazards Gas hydrates represent a hazard to conventional oil and gas production. In the Gulf of Mexico, oil and gas exploration is extending into water depths where gas hydrates occur at the sea floor. Pumping hot oil from great depths through drill pipes can cause warming of sediments and dissociation of hydrate, liberating large amounts of methane, weakening sediments, and perhaps generating pockets of highly pressured gas. The result might be gas blowouts, loss of support for pipelines, and sea-floor failure that could lead to underwater landslides and the release of methane from hydrates. HIP, HIP, HOORAY! |

Wow, thanks for the research, would you like to link this thread on to a couple of the sinkhole threads? There are some great minds there that are so helpful in digging out new information, Yes please do, I linked to a few others. This needs to get out and go viral. This is either by plan or coincidence? how could it not be planned. it had the look of planned way back when. everything i have seen and read since have only confirmed it. no way could they not know the ramifications of what they were doing. look how they have dragged their feet, and bumbled around and stalled to where it has got to this point and still they bumble around and stall, and act like they don't know what is going on. |

Breaching Through Napoleon Salt Dome? The Smoking Gun. Well, I figure that it could only be one of three things: Quoting: Anonymous Coward 498151 1. Deepwater "blowout" was due to human error, they are attempting to deal with situations as they arise, and they are really not sure what is going to happen. 2. They were aware of building stress and fracturing which would eventually lead to catastrophic methane release, salt dome infiltration, cascading faultline rips, land subsidence and seawater inundation. They were attempting to mitigate these effects by systematic controlled-release of these stress forces. 3. They are directly attempting to cause the effects of #2. It has always bothered me that they drilled so so close to the edge of a salt dome. Another deadly shortcut? Thanks....great thread. |

I was able to actually find my GF's law school photo there which was weird. It's very scientific, but I will try to make my way through it. So much of what I am finding seems to be that common sense was ignored for the sake of productivity and cash. |

Breaching Through Napoleon Salt Dome? The Smoking Gun. Immediately off shore from New Orleans,LA there is a site of Gas Hydrate. Right in the same vicinity of the BP Macondo well oil spill. Could this be what has been breached and is now the cause of the bubbles and sink hole? Quoting: El Quisqueyano [link to pubs.usgs.gov] You can see the red dot in the map. Dead smack in the middle of the area in question. Excerpt; Gas hydrates occur at many sites along continental margins and in the Arctic (fig. 1). Yet we know very little about their composition, their volume, or the best ways to exploit their resource potential. The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) is investigating many aspects of gas hydrates to understand their origin, their occurrence, the factors that affect their stability, and the possibility of using this vast resource in the world energy mix. El Q, while I admire your tenacity, this is a little late in the game. I had already discussed this exact scenario with family members, and warned them of the dangers of drilling thru methane hydrates. Not just the enormous amount of pressure involved, but also their structure. Methane hydrates are lattice-like structures that are formed when methane/water freeze, sometimes at temperatures well above 32 degrees due to pressure. As you can imagine there is significant pressure where these hydrates form. Once you drill into these hydrates you essentially are relieving pressure and exciting the methane, on top of breaking down these lattice-like structures. Once this cycle starts, the only logical way to stop it is to expose the remaining hydrates to at least the same pressure and temperature. As you can imagine, a little hard to do once this process starts. Who would have thought that we would be feeling the effects of the Deep Water Horizon so long after the incident? I know this may sound wrong, but I am hoping for a sub-surface earthquake to heal the damage that BP has caused. It is the only power I can think of that can contain that amount of pressure and energy. It has done it for eons. So I have no doubt that it can contain it. I just hope when the quake comes that it is not devastating, and people learn from it. Methane hydrate extraction is a technology that should not be put to use for decades. The energy they contain is just too much for human kind to handle presently. Kudos for this post! ^^^HAARP'S DADDY?!!^^^^ trying to add levity, but in all seriousness, you are insinuating the uptick in earthquakes is a "fix" for the methane that wants to come to the surface due to the tear caused by Deep Water Horizon? Can I get a little more info here? |
