BP’s press release certainly indicated that what was going on initially was “tests” (choke lines/manifold/BOP)? Plus I’m merely guessing that the idea is now to be in a position to transition more rapidly from plan X to Y to Z without the delays that occurred earlier.
But what with my failing to access online video links, laptop on the verge (display cutting out) I am going to trust those more experienced here for periodic updates if possible.
I’m getting the impression that “tests” seemed very/relatively positive at first, but just not quite enough? Reply or not at whim, only if you think more explanation is helpful to us greenhorn lurkers and visitors.
