I heard that the fix on the deep horizon was more temporary than permanent and that there is still some leekage just to keep it from blowing up again.Any truth to that?
I heard that its a huge find under there and that sooner or later someone will try and tap it again.

They originally had made a collar to attempt to slow it down in addition to flowing what they could capture on piping to the surface processing ships until something more permanent could be installed. Their fabricators and suppliers worked around the clock to make the final apparatus to control it. As I said, I watched with stunned amazement what they were able to do with robots on the ocean floor to first install a collar that the capping equipment would be installed on.

But, like you said it is temporary in that they will come back and then start to vent the NG for production when the winds of government are amenable to it. Likewise, they broke new ground with the depths they were going to and that others will be joining the fray once the Obama administration is out of the way with its horrible regulations that the establishment Republicans will not challenge him on.
