Not positive, but we may have begun CHOMPAGE, Rov backed off a little and the oil discharge just increased by a crapload.

We will know shortly, just keep an eye on the horizontal riser pipe, if it moves then we have CHOMPAGE.

Andddddd Ocean 2 just lost grip on the claw! Got it back fairly quickly though

Looking at the top view from a disperant ROV and it looks like the oil’s going more vertical now.
