BP capped the well. No oil leaking into the Gulf


Posted: Jul 15, 2010

It looks beautiful.  They don't know if it's going to totally work; i.e., that there won't be a blow out from somewhere else before the relief wells are done.

intelligence on this planet, it took over 80 days to cap this thing and they still don't know if this will work. I truly hope there isn't a blow out. To think that this could all have been avoided had regulations been followed and inspections had occurred. Pure negligence and we are all being punished for it.

You're exactly right. Right now, the pressure is 6700 psi. - Backwards Typist

If it goes above or below that number, there will be trouble. I'm keeping my fingers crossed.

It was the administration that wouldn't allow this new cap to be used until more facts and figures were done. They didn't want disappointment again.

Whose negligence? - nm

Yes the inspector signed off knowing there were violations and he is not British. He is an American. My husband told me this as we have moved here from FL and work in the oil/gas field. He has connections and got the real story of this horrible disaster. It will come out in court. They had over 500 violations while the other oil companies had 5 barrels of oil spilt in 40 years!!

Billy Nungesser On Gulf Coast CleanupJun 22, 2010
I saw part of this on C-Span this morning, and thought you would like to view it. It's 35 minutes long, but very interesting. The first minute is just him saying hello to everyone, then the ride in the elevator up to the main room where the map is, and from there, the conversation gets pretty interesting. I believe this took place yesterday, but not sure. http://www.c-span.org/Watch/Media/2010/06/20/HP/A/34464/Plaquemines+Parish+President+Billy+Nungesser+on+Gulf+Coast+Cleanup+Efforts.aspx ...
