CRUCIAL OIL WELLS ARE ABOUT TO GET SCREWED
President Trump confirms it: As the blockade continues, Iran is now just DAYS AWAY from their oil hitting capacity, causing DAMAGE to their extraction facilities!
“They say they only have about 3 days left before that happens.”

Good one!
President Trump confirms it: As the blockade continues, Iran is now just DAYS AWAY from their oil hitting capacity, causing DAMAGE to their extraction facilities!
“They say they only have about 3 days left before that happens.”
“When you have lines of vast amounts of oil pouring through your system, if for any reason that line is closed because you can't continue to put it into containers or ships…that line explodes from within, both mechanically and in the earth, something happens where it just explodes.”
“And when it explodes, you can never, regardless, you can never rebuild it the way it was.”
“In other words, it will always be, if you rebuild it, it's hard to rebuild it all, but it would only be about 50% of what it is right now.”
“So it's a very powerful thing that takes place, sort of having to do with nature.”
“But when that gets clogged at the end, in other words, when you have to turn it off because you have no place to store this oil, either put it on ships or storage tanks, which they are just about finished with, a very bad thing is going to happen.”
“So I think they're under pressure.”
MAXIMUM LEVERAGE! 🔥
Thanks!
Darn.
What if they don’t operate them to US epa standards? Gasp, they just might dump the oil in valleys, wadiis and caves as it’s been stored previously
Any reasonably engineered delivery system can shutdown without permanent damage so this is either an overly positive evaluation or the Iranians have disregarded 100 years of engineering.
bruh
The Athabasca oil sands are a significant natural resource located in northeastern Alberta, Canada, near the Saskatchewan border. This area is part of a larger oil sands region that holds the third-largest oil reserves in the world, following Venezuela and Saudi Arabia.
Comprising a mixture of sand, clay, water, and approximately 10-12% bitumen, these oil sands are primarily used to produce crude oil through energy-intensive extraction processes.
To put it in terms everyone understands, Iran is cutting off their nose to spite their face.
There was an analysis put out by some oil-related monitoring group, IIRC, saying it was a matter of weeks of blockade until Iran’s oil wells would have to be shut down and leakage of water into the system would destroy it. I’m trying to find that analysis but Grok isn’t working for me right now. Maybe somebody else would have it and you could comment on it.
But what direct knowledge do you have regarding these systems?
Here’s the link to that article: https://www.fdd.org/analysis/2026/04/13/what-the-us-naval-blockade-would-mean-for-irans-economy/
😀😁😂🤣🤣🤣😄😅😎
The title of a Three Stooges short.
And a lot of our strategic petroleum reserves storage facilities were damaged because Biden emptied them. Perhaps there’s more here than you assume?
Not disparaging anyone - but we turn the wells off the California coast on and off.
The “pipe exploding” schtick doesn’t make any sense.
If you can believe it, I have a solid bridge at discount price for you.
I’ve never heard of this in my lifetime. Is this like the mass destruction yellowcake mission accomplished babies being torn out of the incubators stuff?
Reality: Stopping flow can produce dangerous pressure transients and, if followed by rupture and ignition or special conditions (pressurized heated tanks), fires/explosions can occur—but the statement as written (that a closed-off line simply “explodes from within”) is misleading and false.
