Why can't they thread the pipe and screw on a fitting and a valve??

That is cool. They probably don’t have to worry about the blade overheating.

My thought is this ,if there is a pipe up from the ground why couldn’t you put a cork in it like a wine bottle?

Having worked offshore for a few years, I can attest that cutting a riser is pretty pedestrian. Putting it in place is where the fun starts.
