The preasure of the leak is somehow arround 20 000 bar.
The preasure the strongest Pump producing volume is about
6000 bar.(Sulzer)
With 6000 bar you cannot overcome 20 000 bar.
And those criminals know it. They just want to gain some time to get out of their share.
The reason why all the valve mechanism failed is the incredible preasure.
The reason why all the estimation of the leak was far to low is the incredible preasure.
Mankind has no tools and experience to handle such an incredible preasure.
The BP engeniers must have known that before they drilled into the deepest oil bubble ever!!
There is no fault to the technicans on the platform.
With today existing tools they had no chance.
To believe an extra drilling will solve the problem is an
illusion. They never ever can drill into the actual drilling hole. Simply because of navigational problems.
And if they can, they are still confronted with the same preasure they cannot handle.
If there is any chance, it will be a severe explotion (maybe a nuklear explotion) halfway inbetween the oil bubble and the seabed. It also has to be very very close to the drilling hole.
If that fails, the whole atlantic ocean will be polluted.
How could such a drill ever ever be permitted???
Because leading positions are given to buddies in the US.
Ethnic herritage is more important than qualification.
What is the name of the lady stepping back?
Elizabeth something.(You know what I mean)
Lovely gift to the world.
Thank You America
Lovely gift to the world.
Thank You America
I thought this was a British Company. Thank you Brits for knowing this was going to happen sooner or later and putting dollars ahead of people.
The one who gave drilling permission is responsible
Perhaps some of that oil will one day drift up the Pond and taint England's shores. Or Wales'. Or Cornwall's. That'll hit home for them.
911? that a roman holiday compared to this. and still nobody even cares
This will be worse than 9/11, without the planes and twin towers.
Who needs terrorists when you have unbridled capitalism.
exactly. too much pressure. they barely made it work at 500 ft too 9 months
You are a wise man. This will be the worst event in the history of mankind.
that is 294000 lbs per squar inch if that were the case the casing would have blown apart
Looks like it did blow apart, they used cheap materials and valves along with a flawed procedure and unskilled crew in a critical environment?
We're hosed!
As long as there is flow in the drilling hole you get a preasure decresae by friction. In the moment you you stop the flow full preasur hits the top.
the oil is surfacing; all they gotta do is channel it. but, YEA, LET'S KILL IT!
