The pipe idea to a tanker would work, it is just how to get it over and around the oil pressure.


What if they put a large concrete/steel top-cover over it with one side having a large valve that can be closed off (slowly if necessary) and the other side has a large pipe going up to the tankers on the surface?

I know BP has a lot of people working on it but they’re also the same folks that pumped golfballs and mud into the hole.

Hopefully, they’ve got some good plans.

BTW, I have forwarded this thread along with any reasonable plans I’ve read on to Deep Water Horizon. They may not read these suggestions but I cannot just sit idle and do nothing. If they GAIN JUST ONE THING from the suggestions, it’s all worthwhile to me.

Anyway, I know we’re all just hoping this nightmare goes away soon.

That sounds reasonable and doable.

God bless you for your thoughts and attempts on this. I will not understand them not reading suggestions.

We may not be as educated as they are, but from necessity comes the MOTHER of invention. People have good ideas, and you never know what will click.

Send them everything you think of. Give them this thread, and keep this thread going. Something has to be done.
