saw the green dye on another cam.

Most cams are on the gauges it seems tonite(and the freakish hula hoop thingy), but that Disc Ent 2 one has been on the BOP with some really interesting angles. No clue what that thing was or the stuff coming up from under the BOP. Weirder that weird down there tonite.

i wish i knew how to take screenshots, every once in awhile that discovery ent 2 cam pans down well below the bop to take a look around and both times i have seen it there appears to be clouds of something coming up. such a mess down there.

I was going to bed until watching this, would like to know if the hoses are to hook up to something or just sniffers on the ends.

it's a tangled mess of hoses, wiring, tubing down there lately. some appear to be hooked to things, others just crazily floating around.

I just hope it gets under control soon, I don't live down there but it is just as depressing up here. Where are the ducks going to go, will it kill them all? The little furballs are all over now!

They are placing hydraulic jacks on the flex joint. They are bending the stump of the riser pipe vertically aligned.

Does that help to stabilize it? Are they going try something different on it?

They are going to remove to LMRP cap and put this on:

[link to www.bp.com]

Installing it will be easier when the pipe is straight.

Though, this is just my opinion and I am not specialist but what else that could be.

You do a screen shot by pressing ctrl (on the corner of your keyboard) and print screen at the same time... Then go to MS Paint (Assuming your on windows right?) Goto edit choose paste and viola save as.... Then up load to flicker and share with world.
