From Egypt, we all so sorry for this sad event, God Bless all these families, childrens , and all the US., again God Bless You.
Yeah i work for the same company Transocean & i can tell you some of our other rigs, like the drillships hold up to a full 220 people 24/365 days a year.
This has rocked the world of the oilmen & women, my prayers are with the fallen men & families of all the men & women in the patch
It would be cheep to sink a Carnival cruse ship full of cement on tip of the leak. How big can the holes be?
@Torpedo8 not sure about a drillin’ platform of that size.. i work on a production platform and we have close to 350 out here.. but if i had to guess, a normal one may have 50 to 75 people? that one may have had more being such a big drillin’ platform..
May God be with the families of the men and crew that was on this rig, i once worked out in the deep and this was a fear of mine. Blessings to you all.
Anyone know how many guys are normally on a platform like this?
So sad mother earth is crying
@2007stewart — Thank you Stewart, I have a really close friend who works there offshore & I am blessed knowing that he is ok. I pray for all those who are lost and the families, God bless!
This still tears my heart out, did not know a single man, yet they all feel like my brothers, God Bless them and there families.
Our prayers go out 🙁 C
Feel free to post comments! God Bless!
I met use dry ice steam too freeze up the surface of the water and remove the chunks of oil like that,
I might found a way too clean out the oil gulf of Mexico why don’t they freeze up the top serf ice of the water with dry ice,and move it somewhere,
I think it should be possible to close the leak by controlled explosion.
Why is BP not trying this ?
Nikola teslaaaa !!! NOW …. hydrogen from water people; this shit came out in the 90’s our gov’t is just about Gold Oil & Dolla bills
Click on my title for my musical comment.!!!!
its closer to 200,000 barrels.
The mega oil slick is most definitely going to reach the Gulf stream. Sad to say, but its only a matter of time that the oil will cover the eastern coastline of the USA. This monster is nearly the size of Cuba and there is no way to shut off the endless flow 5,000 feet under water. A giant box is being built in hopes to contain some oil and then funnel out to tankers but if this is the best plan we are in big trouble.
There are now new reports starting to come out that say 2 more leaks were found. “According to what is identified as an emergency response report from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), scientists estimate that the leak may be ten times worse than what’s being admitted by BP. Rather than the 200,000 gallons a day the company is citing the real number could be closer to 2.1 million gallons. A day.” Is this true ? Hell if i know but lets hope they are wrong !
This is going to be an epic nation destroying inncident. Lets hope they can stop it alot quicker than 3 MONTHS!!! or we will see it on the east coast in the gulf stream
the word up here is the ‘Gulf of Texaco”
Americans likes oil..now they can bath in it….
Swat teams are on their way! Motive? look for oil prices to sky rocket, very suspicous.
1000 – 5000 barrels a day??? I’ve read much much higher estimates starting at 800000 (eight-hundred-THOUSAND)
Obama doesnt like White people!!! WHERE IS THE GOVERNMENT!!!
Could this take part of an economic collapse? Hmmm i wonder

“For Tony Hayward, who has led BP for the last three years, the accident threatens to overshadow all of the efforts he has made to burnish the tattered reputation of the company after a refinery explosion in Texas in 2005 and a pipeline leak in Alaska in 2006.” Other than those disasters…Everything has been peachy-keene.
