cut riser... run pipe-in-pipe

PIPE IN PIPE!

which I heard a call to reduce mud too early occurred which allowed the massive pressure kick to occur below the well. All hearsay though so who knows. The only person that did know if that was the case was the one who got the order to change that and was vaporized during the explosion.

So basically, keep your fingers crossed that someone doesn't push too hard on a lever?

 

[BigBronco]

a little more difficult than that.

They should have cut off the riser from the BOP and stuck E-Rocks fat ass on the hole.

[BigBronco]

Because like Cesc said, this allows companies like where I work, to develop a full field to help produce the oil/gas and get it out as efficient as possible.

I bet more people were watching the American Idol finals than worrying about this, AMERICA FUCK YEAH

Would that be the mud engineer or the Halliburton folks doing the cementing.
