I dont know, Hopefully there is not so much pressure that the valve breaks off or cannot close and hopefully ice crystals don’t clog it again. I do know they have taken some preventive measures for these things but it is very unpredictable situation. It shoudl be remembered that everything they are trying now has also failed before in many cases also, key example being the Ixtoc leak in 79, so they are desperately trying to improve these techniques. I am just praying nothing happens like the seal breaking off or ice cloging it or the seal being forced open by the oil. From there, any coverage will be irrelevant as it will be reported as a failure anyway when it doesnt get all the oil.

What I meant was once they get the seal fastened on, and it doesnt blow or get forced off and ice doesnt clog it, then media coverage will be irrelevant as it will be deemed a failure for not getting all the oil, a la RITT
