Stew Posted July 30, 2010 Posted July 30, 2010 I guess BP wasn't involved in this one.... http://www.rigzone.com/news/article.asp?a_id=96646 I'll put money on it being a US operator.... Quote
Ruddles Posted July 30, 2010 Posted July 30, 2010 Pfft! Bet the US will downplay it too! Quick enough to pour a tirade of blame on other countries /international companies, but won't ever take the blame for their own actions! Quote

Stew Posted July 30, 2010 Author Posted July 30, 2010 Not sure how bad the leak is. Doesn't say what damage has been done to the tree. I'm bloody amazed that they have no SSSVs though. In the north sea you need three barriers minimum in a production well whether it free flows or not. It must be a pretty high pressure reservoir if it's gushing though so I hope they can close it off. Lets hope the office cleaner of the company involved isn't a brit though or it'll be blamed on them.... Quote
geoff-r Posted July 31, 2010 Posted July 31, 2010 The US can go f itself. Shove the special relationship where the sun don't shine. They're the biggest hypocritical country ever, we're not much better mind but the way they have handled the oil spill is terrible. Quote
BulletMagnet Posted August 1, 2010 Posted August 1, 2010 The wellhead, located about 65 miles south of New Orleans, was ruptured when it was struck by a dredge barge being pulled by a tug. martin ain't been moonlighting in the US has he? Quote
bronzee Posted August 1, 2010 Posted August 1, 2010 They quickly mentioned an oil spill in China on the news yesterday, apparently it's been going on for a couple of weeks. First we'd heard of it here. Quote
