I think he meant that the media is just giving us the basic facts along with some footage. The media should be digging into WTF is going on and they're not.
 
Anyone have any idea what a hurricane in the gulf could mean? I can't decide if that would put a shit load of oil onto the coast; or if it would actually clean up the shit.
 
Where do you get the idea that they don't know what to do? Next step is to attempt to close it up with concrete and a bunch of other recycled shit. That starts tomorrow.
 
Someone listens to too much Rush.

This is because of a lack of oversight and regulation by the government coupled with greedy faggots at BP or whatever company controlled the rig pushing to drill faster than was safely possible.
 
Halliburton told them they needed to do a structural integrity test. BP declined.

Halliburton wanted to place the plug before displacing the mud. BP declined.

Halliburton and Schlumberger are not at fault for this - it is 100% the decisions of BP.
 
I'M looking at these pics while working on location for an oil and gas company lolololol
 
You should hear the Texas twins try and defend BP

As if BP was the only one with a deep-ocean well, and no one had ever before done what they were doing, and there was no way for them to predict just how much pressure the oil was under, etc. etc.
 
There's a select few here who work for oil so the trolling was expected, but I totally agree.

I've been in one of those moods where I REALLY want to do something to help, but I can't.
 
Maybe. The difference is, when a leak starts onshore, it can be repaired in hours because all of the operation is readily accessible by workers. When was the last onshore oil drilling disaster you heard of?

I'm interested to know what you do for a living that you consider drilling 100 miles offshore and a mile underwater "safe."
 
The way BP's luck has been going, the top kill is just going to increase the pressure on the BOP to the point that it goes, too.
