Bp Oil Spill Response: Incompetency Reigns Supreme
With recent deep sea video clearly showing an open well head gushing thousands of
gallons of oil a day into the Gulf of Mexico, it also clearly shows the efforts of BP's oil spill response team to be incompetent at best.The oil spill clean up and capping of the mile deep well head being overseen by the EPA, Washington Politicians and BP execs, would be laughable if not for the environmental impact on our oceans, wildlife, and economy.
Upon viewing the oil spill dispersants being pumped in the plume of oil being blown from the severed well head, even a journey plumber could tell you how to install an effective oil spill control device.
Plumbers would simply install an air bag at the top of the well, and inflate it as they do when working on live high pressure water mains.
The air bag is similar to ones used as shocks on over the road trucks, and are capable of handling tons of pressure. Easily adaptable to the mile deep conditions of the water pressure near the well head.
Using BP's submarine rover, the bag would be inserted into the top of the well head, and then inflated. This might not stop the oil from flowing completely, but the amount of the oil gushing into the Gulf would be greatly reduced.
Installing many air bags deep in the oil flow tube could possibly stop the leak altogether in just one day.
Which leads to me question the sincerity of BP's oil spill control methods.
Are they really making an all out effort and using all resources available for the oil cleanup?
Is there a reason why BP is so persistent in trying to cap the head with devices that could be attached to so they can pump the oil out?
Is pumping oil more important to Bp than oil spill control?
Is the BP oil spill response team really doing all they can do?
What's going on here BP? Doesn't your oil spill response team have a plumbing engineer available?
Unfortunately for BP, the new video of the oil spilling from the well head proves beyond a shadow of a doubt to any blue collar tradesman, that either incompetency or negligence is at fault with regards to containing the oil at the source.
And, if this is not the case, then it's apparent to this viewer that cleaning up oil spills may not be as important to the BP oil spill response as pumping the oil from the well at a later date.
