June 01, 2010 — Three days after BP said its latest attempt to stop oil gushing out into the Gulf of Mexico had failed, the company is turning to another risky procedure. BP plans to use robot submarines to cut away the riser pipe and place a containment valve over the blowout preventer. However, it’s likely to temporarily cause 20 per cent more oil (some 100000 gallons) to add to the spill daily.

Deepwater Horizon / BP – Top Kill Animation (v2)
August 1 ,2010 GREAT VIDEO

Well, the animation is nice, the question is, how accurate it is, what is under the sea floor, are there any fissures, which are not on the picture ? Finally, how the closure will effect further spills at and around the area? We hope for reduced or no-spill operation in the future. Even it is the diversion of the oil up to container vessels. Just keep oil out of water please! We have to trust the experts and the ones with more detailed knowledge of the situation. Good luck!
@MySecretIsland It could also be the beginning of a change with some very difficult times beforehand.
You are, however, correct to point out that it is the end for a lot of people whose lives depend on the local fish habitat for their liveliehoods.
As bad as it will get, there are ways to change the system to bring about a more positive way of life than what caused this problem.
Cheers.
@MySecretIsland
Haha very funny beginning of the end. Every time there is a big environmental disaster people claim that it’s the end of the world. Sorry for you the world will not end.
They’re still trying to plug it? The Iranians did a great job plugging the offshore oil wells that American terrorists blew up while the US was attacking Iran both directly and indrectly during the Iran-Iraq war of 1980-1988. And the Iranians were in the middle of a devastating defensive war facing every weapon of mass destruction available at that time. Are the British/Americans that stupid?
Either way, what goes around comes around! It’s only a shame that the animals have to pay for it.
This is not an Environmental Disaster , this is the beginning of the end .
FAIL
@a2zhandi
yes, look for video of it. it works. So does amfo
@Thetruthishere11 Yes, trying to do some legal research on TBT ’cause the treaty has backed itself in a corner and provisions in the treaty should be re-examined.
Computer codes can simulate explosion but there is a difference when a virtual explosion meets real explosion TBT legal language ( any real explosion is termed as a ‘Test’ ) NPT, CTBT, LTBT and OST all need to be examined.
This is a developing issue…
It called Karma America!! As if invading two countries wasn’t enough. You wanted Oil so here it is!!! Enjoy fat piggies…
You deserve worse!!
@jibbi4one
There might be a loophole in the stupid treaty. This is really for selfdefense and not a ‘test’ weapon at all. Pretty sure the UN might agree.

When you place those in charge in positions to watch out for your best interest, and they FAIL, It’s time to remove all in charge and start over!!!
@Thetruthishere11 the sea floor is already fractured. You actually “think” a nuke will miraculously seal them all. Without cracking it worse?
My theory is a nuke will take several fractures and make many more. It may even open the top of an ancient volcano.
IMHO, this repair is out of our hands. May God have mercy on all life on earth. No wonder we’ve been in quarantine for thousands of years. We’re not very bright you know. If we were, none of this would have happened.
I have the solution to the Oil Spill. I need you to help forward my videos into the hands of every one of your friends and/or someone at the White House or BP. My solution will work, NO DOUBT! Please Help before all Sea life dies out in the Gulf of Mexico. GET INVOLVED NOW! Go watch my videos on my home page (in two parts) now and pass on to everyone you know. Solving this leak will require your help and all you need to do is forward this video! Amanplusone@hotmail.com 225-718-8830
@almostcapecod Are you joking? How long do you think it takes to drill a relief well? They started drilling these almost the same day the catastrophe was a fact.
@Thetruthishere11 Great someone agrees!!!
Yea…The stupidity is the U.S. and other nations have created a complete BAN on nuclear detonation. They should go back to the Partial Test Ban Treaty to allow for peaceful detonation. Nuke explosions DO have a constructive purpose as long as it’s done safely for a constructive effect. Reasons: catastrophe prevention of accidental oil/gas pollution, in-space propulsion, NEO earth impacts.
@jibbi4one
nukes need to be considered
@djlolypop Well looking at the NEW high def video showing the cut riser pipe,there is a bolt on flange,looks like about 6 bolts,why don’t they just unbolt the riser pipe stub and bolt an open valve on the BOP where the riser pipe was,after bolting the valve on just shut it off. If they cant do something that simple they have no business down there.
@almostcapecod there dumb asses and dont know anything if it was americans they would already be done with this
@terribletimthepirate Whata freakin’ moron. YOU USE NUKE EXPLOSION AS A TOOL fool. It creates a GLASS PLUG at geostrata. The disadvantage is you can’t ever drill for oil in that particular oil repository. Which cuts off profit for oil industry, any wonder gov’t & oil industry come up with excuses NOT to nuke it.
THE U.S. POLLUTION CONTINUES-FOOLS !!!
@jibbi4one
I never wrote that I worked in the petroleum sector; I said that I was a stratigrapher!
Yeah, using radioisotopes to boil water… that is the answer. I’d rather have climate change!
@ArkansasGillum Go F urself. A very elequent answer. I do stand corrected sir. So you are from Arkansas, a long ways up the hollar I suppose. You know what they say about webbed toes, good divers for offshore work. Cheers.
High def live feed of BP disaster. Click my name, then click on the blog link to watch.
@terribletimthepirate If you’re an indication of how the petroindustry runs then we are in for some higher priced fuels at the pumps and catastrophic environmental pollution. Any wonder why nuke powerplants are a viable key alternative to hydrocarbon in a sane energy policy.
