LOL......Amazing post from The Oil Drum Web site from an Oil Guy......

The text below is from the Oil Drum web site.........

====================================================================

for those of you who MIGHT have thought that there was major engineering going on behind all of this, here's a fabulous quote about the lack of success of the topkill:

"I don't think the amount of oil coming out has changed," BP chief operating officer Doug Suttles said on Saturday. "Just by watching it, we don't believe it's changed."

====================================================================

Wow, that sounds like something us on the DU would be saying about the flow rate! WTF, do these people not have any better way to evaluate flow than looking at the damn camera?

1. Hm...what about gum?
All that gum he's been chewing while he watches the images? Just send that down there, it'll plug the leak. If not that, tnen duct tape.

I mean, really, that's about the level of their technology.

3. It just doesn't seem that the experts
had a lot of experience with top killing a live flowing well, that it is nothing more than an experiment out of desperation to me.
