Deepwater Horizon - Transocean Oil Rig Fire

[QUOTE=userGOM;31190]is fire still raging? i do hope they got everyone.[/QUOTE]

The fire is still raging, but with all of the vessels, there is conflicting information…and what is being broadcasted or reported to this point should be taken with a grain of salt.

does anyone have any updates on the fire. We have personnel going out there now to assist in the operations.

rig manager was on the rig, also some other office people, rig visit probably.

manager used to be on my rig, he’s in Mobile, broken leg, burns 25% of body, all I know.

4 photos of Deepwater Horizon fire

U. S Coast Guard and the lease operator BP Exploration & Production, Inc. is working with Transocean and Family Emergency [B]Deepwater Horizon [/B]

Please pray for my dear friend, neighbor, and extended family, her husband is the Chief Engineer for the Horizon and they will not give her any information regarding her husband.

Also, from a reliable USCG source, there were 15 originally missing, and as of 8 am only 4 still not accounted for. . .no confirmed deaths.

I also have spoken to a rep at the USA Burn Center in Mobile, AL that said the 2 that were flown in have been treated and were stable enough to go home.

Anchorman - I work for a tv station and would love to be able to use this picture on our website. Would you mind?

Valem002, anchorman and all other users- I would love use these pictures on the Fox10 News website, or on-air. We are based out of Mobile and our viewers have been calling non-stop wanting information. We would love to talk to anyone who witnessed the fire or talked to any of the crew members. My email is linda.jones@fox10tv.com .

Thanks!

There are a few other photos floating around the web right now. Not sure who took them but here they are

The photo poster on that board said he got them from a co-worker and I would presume the person taking the photos is in the Gulf on a service vessel of some type
