Thank you so much for posting that!! It’s the best I’ve seen...up here in CT, I don’t get to see a lot of info on oil rigs.

That looks like it was destroyed as opposed to-it just broke!

So do some people who know a lot more about these things than we. I was speaking with the VP of our mineral club over the weekend. He usually is working on nuke subs in So Cal. He’s been called to go down there. Even at a dollar a minute, he’s not sure if he wants to deal with the red tape. Quizzing him on this mess I did learn this, and I quote “they don’t happen this way”.

I’ll let you draw your conclusions.

I do have another question: with over 60 people working on that rig, where are the interviews of the survivors??
