Re: The BP Deep water horizon, Macondo Well Blowout. and what we are facing in the Gulf.
ok- so it doesn't have a name what they are doing.
so i will call it a relief well.

i first went offshore in 1977 and am 4th generation oilfield trash.

What did you do? It's hard to imagine you being anything higher than floorhand, and even a floor hand knows what a relief well is, well, usually they do.

Re: The BP Deep water horizon, Macondo Well Blowout. and what we are facing in the Gulf.
Hey SHR, thank you soooo much for all your time you put into writing and researching this!

I have a question for you....I live in Georgia, is this consider too close for comfort?? Should I starting looking to other locations to possibly head to if this fails? Or, I am in a good clear area (North Georgia)

Thank you sooo much!!!

I am keeping one eye on the sky and the other on ground!

 Quoting: Foxy Fox 970831

I think you are ok...I am in Florida...so I'm probably even closer...but people along the gulf coast I think need to be extra aware...and everyone should BE AWARE...the gulf coast could get taken over by a panic....remember it doesn't have to be a matter of life or death to create a mass panic...and then people could get hurt or killed because of that alone.

My whole point is that I think everyone should be watching this...and everyone in this country should be aware of what Might happen here...it really can become a disaster of epic proportions...

Re: The BP Deep water horizon, Macondo Well Blowout. and what we are facing in the Gulf.
This post is nothing more than a very wordy regugitation of all of the bullshit that has been spewed by the bullshitters in charge of straight bullshit.

There is no fucking BOP attached to anything. There is no riser attached to anything. There is a fucking well spewing oil full bore. That is all there ever has been. There is a crater in the seabed where all that shit used to be and a well spewing. The explosion too place deep inside the earth and blew all that shit to kingdom come. Not only did it blow that shit away but it blew hole in a pipe which was next to it that was coming from another well. Everyone in the know knows that. The people who know went to incredible lengths to bullshit everyone that there was shit they were doing and could do to fix this, but here isn't. There never was. The only thing that could work is the two relief wells. But it too them 9 months to fix Ixtoc and it was in 150 feet of water. So don't count on it. That's the truth and it really isn't too hard to understand.

 Quoting: SHR

Very good read and in line with what I've imagined. Seems to me that even a cemented or plugged well like this (if it is plugged and others that have been) run the ongoing potential to blow lose. So this one or one of many others could just pop lose and start back up. Does it seem to anyone else that we've been playing a dangerous game for a long time? And this time we really fucked up? And oil from the ground actually saved the whale from extinction. How ironic.

So, is the methane holding the sea floor above this reserve? Could the Sea Floor Collapse at a certain point?
How does that effect the whole "stop the flow" plan?

I assume we don't know just how much could be in this one field...whether it could be above or below the average....is there any chance these "Fields" do interrconnect?...or is that something that doesn't happen.

No idea, sorry.

I have been working as a tool pusher for 20 years, both drilling and workover for a family operated business. I cannot post the name of the company I work for for fear of reprisals, but it's a name thats came up here at least once.

If the whole deposit vents to the open sea and equalizes pressure, it seems to me there is a real possibility of it collapsing. Sort of the biggest sinkhole we've ever seen.

I don't know if I have this straight.....It seems the equipment failed with all of its multitude of redundancy and safety.........All the equipment have codes and ratings and I'm sure they were built to withstand whatever amount of pressure....What I don't see being addressed is how much pressure rose up to destroy all of that equipment.
