Deepwater Horizon - Transocean Oil Rig Fire

[QUOTE=alvis;39743]I’ll ask again. What is going on with BP’s sudden change of heart to allow the well to be shut in? Not that I’m complaining mind you… All along they have said that stopping the flow of oil and gas was off the table. And as suddenly as they dismissed that idea, they relent.

Is it because BP wasn’t ready with the tools and the technology to perform a shut in? And manufactured a reason to let them off the hook? Or what? There has to be a rational reason for this sudden change in direction.[/QUOTE]

One of the guys that lives near my house works for Vetco Gray said if this thing works they will make lots of money.

Was’nt sure that Vetco had anything to do with the new cap till i saw the stickers on it, when he first said that I thought he was talking about the floating risers.

Yeah they did just build this thing and they want to beat there chest drive up the stock. Will do it agin with the well kill. And of course a strategic release of Tony and others will give them another boost when they see fit.
