What I have understood is that the levels of pressure at these depths pose extreme difficulties for solving this problem. Whereas we do have the technology to drill this deep, the question is now posed whether we are sufficiently technologically advanced to resolve this crisis that resulted from the drilling. Two of the three methods of stopping this oil leak have already failed (activating the BOP and lowering a containment dome), what if the third one (drilling a relief well - which may take 2 to 3 months) fails as well? At those depths, there's no telling what else may yet happen.<br><br>One thing I do know: the more I read about this (especially the technical stuff that I don't understand) the more I am panicking. It looks really, monumentally bad.A Sane Personhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05389974401782795345noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1244044300216345080.post-61372043698213907212010-05-14T01:05:10.809+01:002010-05-14T01:05:10.809+01:00Cheers, Ollie.
