Go Jeff go!! Who needs Kristian Manure’s impotent endorsement. Kristian reneged on his promise not to endorse anybody but went and endorsed Downer anyway. RINOs desperate to help other RINOs. Gotta love it.
East, thanks for the clarification. It’s amazing that in one hole they can drill the bit, then surround it in a cement casing that allows drilling mud to flow upwards to the surface.
From what I understand, they need to push the oil far down the hole. They are pumping some outrageous volume of mud down the hole to push the oil deeper down the well. Like 55 gallons every few seconds. I think that is causing the increased flow from the broken riser seen on the video. Eventually they flow of mud will be changed to to fast setting cement. Pray that the cement can withstand the pressure and set. If so, well is plugged.
If the Democrats would open up the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge to drilling, oil companies would not have to spend the capital to drill 5 miles underwater in the Gulf of Mexico. Offshore drilling is not cheap.
I just got back from my polling place in Sugarland (heavy Republican) after a 3 hour wait. Voted for Shelley Sekula Gibbs. Writing that name in on the electronic machine was a nightmare. And they only had 7 machines.
