I can't really discount 100% what that horizon3 fellow is saying with what I know about it.
His theory could technically be true. The bp people who have much more info. than us internet dweebs would probably know for sure.
I haven't had a chance to check the ROV's for myself so I don't know for sure if there is any sign of oil still.
jimmcg, don't just post an old blog saying there are still leaks, go have a look for yourself and tell me what you think.
Even if there is a possibility of pressure releasing through that 16" csg. bullheading cement should get it and there should be no signs of oil at the wellhead.
As usual it is all speculation when you don't know the exact pressures and volumes bp is seeing.
Why thank you, MD.
I was getting ready to post Horizon's quote.
But you knew that I'd seen it.
I'm sure.
And you realize the implications as well(pun unintended, but I'll take it;}.
The US/bp have now foreclosed options favoring instead
a sarcophagus.
And Horizon and my opinion and I'm sure others, as you yourself entertained the notion, is that we now have a 'chernobyl' contained but 'functioning.
We now have no way, other than Both RW's now to control
the flow rate.
Or we have one more Abandoned Well Leaking. And I saw the ROV and oil is leaking, which means gas is leaking as well.
Maybe we'll get a temblor and the MT will slide over the whole thing, eh? Because it looks like that's the plan.
Cat 3/5's to scour, temblors/earthquakes/subsidence to
cover.
Why do I keep thinking of a salvage yard?
This ain't over, but I've learned when the public no longer
thinks an Event is Current. This ain't over, though.
It's a Dragon King/Watershed Event, and nothing will be the same going forward except America's attempts to stay ignorant.
My post from another site:
But sorta like 911, Iraq/Afghanistan, Katrina, it's gonna keep coming back.
The Macondo has at best been replaced by a sarcophagus. We have no idea where the mud/cement went.
And with everyone of these, that much science is being replaced with a witchdoctor brew of Imperial chicanery.
You know, when historians tell us the places like Rome, their collapse was sudden and complete? It's because All that was left at the Time in question was a scaffolding of words put out by the Last Senators standing/scrambling to hold onto what they thought was theirs.
Here’s how the New York Times reporter put it:The federal agency [Fish and Wildlife Service] charged with protecting endangered species like the brown pelican and the Kemp’s ridley sea turtle signed off on the Minerals Management Service’s conclusion that deepwater drilling for oil in the Gulf of Mexico posed no significant risk to wildlife, despite evidence that a spill of even moderate size could be disastrous, according to federal documents.
