And promptly extended the capping another day, which he did again today. he was asked why the surface collection cannot be done immediately and why bp is claiming that checking at the surface would first require several more days of oil flowing unchecked again into the gulf. >> if we were to hook up the q-4000 and the helix producer, that would produce a number of problems right away. number one, there would be extensive pressure in those lines over and above what they were used to handling when they were both in production. secondarily, there are issues about the make-up of the hydro carbon s...

Extended the capping yet another day, which he did again today. he was asked why the surface collection cannot be done immediately and why bp is claiming that collecting at the surface would first require several more days of oil flowing unchecked again into the gulf. >> if we were to hook up the q-4000 and the helix producer, that would produce a number of problems right away. number one, there would be extensive pressure in those lines over and above what they were used to handling when they were both in production. secondarily, there are some issues about the make-up of the hydrocarbon stre...

We want redundancy in the production capability and also in the capacity so that while we're doing this, we can still deal with the entire flow. for that reason, it was anticipated whether or not the capping stack works and we shut the well in that we would ultimately go to four sources of production under the new system, the kill and choke lines from the original blowout preventer and the kill and choke lines from the new capping stack. two would go to vertical riser pipes anchored on the sea floor, and the other two would go to drill strings that are put below production vessels and kengted ...

Top, so in the event -- to get really close and potentially nick the well bore, they put mud down to control any hydrocarbons that might come out. regarding the longer-term containment, we should by next week have the additional vessel in place to start producing off of the kill line, the other line that's available to bring oil to the surface. that will bring us to three production vessels and the 53,000-barrel capacity we were looking for by the end of june. moving beyond that, we're very close to completing the first free-standing riser pipe, that will allow us to go to the new configuratio...

Would be day by day. and promptly extended the capping another day, which he did again today. he was asked why the surface collection cannot be done immediately and why bp is claiming that collecting at the surface would first require several more days of oil flowing unchecked again into the gulf. >> if we were to hook up the q-4000 and the helix producer, that would produce a number of problems right away. number one, there would be extensive pressure in those lines over and above what they were used to handling when they were both in production. secondarily, there are issues about the make-u...
