Oil Volcano Pressure Too Strong For Containment?

  1. Oil Volcano Pressure Too
    Strong For Containment

    It has been estimated by experts that the pressure which blows the oil into the Gulf waters is estimated to be between 20,000 and 70,000 PSI (pounds per square inch). Impossible to control.

    What US Scientists Are Forbidden To Tell The Public About The Gulf

    What you are about to read, is what the scientists in the United States are not allowed to tell you in great fear of the Obama administration.

    They are under the threat of severe repercussions to the max.. Scientists confirming these findings cannot be named due to the above, but what they believe, they want to be known by all.

    Take a U. S. map, lay it flat and measure inland just the minimum 50 miles of total destruction all around the Gulf of Mexico as to what you will read below.

    The carnage to the United States is so staggering, it will take your breathe away.

    Should what the scientists who are trying to warn everyone about be even close to being true... all of Florida will be completely destroyed as will everyone and everything on it.

    You decide!! Everyone has the right to read what I have just written in this article, as well as to what is written below by the scientists who the Obama administration and BP are trying to shut up.

    Please share with as many as you can.

    SUMMARY OF WHAT IS HAPPENING

    The estimated super high pressure release of oil from under the earth's crust is between 80,000 to 100,000 barrels per day.

    The flow of oil and toxic gases is bringing up with it... rocks and sand which causes the flow to create a sandblasting effect on the remaining well head device currently somewhat restricting the flow, as well as the drilled hole itself.

    As the well head becomes worn it enlarges the passageway allowing an ever-increasing flow. Even if some device could be placed onto the existing wellhead, it would not be able to shut off the flow, because what remains of the existing wellhead would not be able to contain the pressure.

    The well head piping is originally about 2 inches thick. It is now likely to be less than 1 inch thick, and thinning by each passing moment. The oil has now reached the Gulf Stream and is entering the Oceanic current which is at least four times stronger than the current in the Gulf, which will carry it throughout the world within 18 months.

    The oil along with the gasses, including benzene and many other toxins, is deleting the oxygen in the water. This is killing all life in the ocean. Along with the oil along the shores, there will be many dead fish, etc. that will have to be gathered and disposed of.

    SUMMARY OF EXPECTATIONS

    At some point the drilled hole in the earth will enlarge itself beneath the wellhead to weaken the area the wellhead rests upon. The intense pressure will then push the wellhead off the hole allowing a direct unrestricted flow of oil, etc.

    The hole will continue to increase in size allowing more and more oil to rise into the Gulf. After several billion barrels of oil have been released, the pressure within the massive cavity five miles beneath the ocean floor will begin to normalize.

    This will allow the water, under the intense pressure at 1 mile deep, to be forced into the hole and the cavity where the oil was. The temperature at that depth is near 400 degrees, possibly more.

    The water will be vaporized and turned into steam, creating an enormous amount of force, lifting the Gulf floor. It is difficult to know how much water will go down to the core and therefore, its not possible to fully calculate the rise of the floor.

    The tsunami wave this will create will be anywhere from 20 to 80 feet high, possibly more. Then the floor will fall into the now vacant chamber. This is how nature will seal the hole.

    Depending on the height of the tsunami, the ocean debris, oil, and existing structures that will be washed away on shore and inland, will leave the area from 50 to 200 miles inland devoid of life. Even if the debris is cleaned up, the contaminants that will be in the ground and water supply will prohibit re-population of these areas for an unknown number of years.

    Sad to say... As Obama has "taken charge".... and even if this leads to the destruction of the Gulf Coast.. it could be a blessing in disguise... if it keeps Obama from being re-elected and stops his ruinous agenda...

  3. Scataphagos:

    I read this some time ago and see it as a possible scenario.

    Operation "Swift Fox" ... possible ... yes.

    I am sure you have seen these vids already.

    My biggest concern is a super-quake along the New Madrid fault line. (Especially if they choose the nuke option)

  4. PEMEX had a similar blowout 30 years ago, and they could never get it controlled either. The well just exhausted itself finally. None of the stuff mentioned in this article happened. Seems a bit alarmist.
     

  5. It is a bit alarmist.

    However I believe the reason for extra concern is the new territory of
    deeper abiotic wells and head pressures in the 20K PSI to 70K PSI


    So yes ... new territory ... yes over dramatized and alarmist ...
    but with lies and deception being the norm with BP and the Government ... trust levels get shaky.
     
  6. If the 20-70K PSI is true, it's a big problem. I don't know what new technology is available, but I think 15K PSI Tree Valve is the max for underwater operations. Right now I'd bet better than even money they can't stop this thing, even with a relief well.
     
  7. I think the claims of 70,000 psi are way ovestated. 20,000psi maybe. They have trees that can handle that.

    The article was correct that the flow will quickly eat up the blowout protector and even the casing. This well is probably already leaking around the casing anyway.
     

  8. You're probably right as far as overstated estimates.
    But with deceptively understated estimates and deceit being the norm with BP and US-GOV ...

    Perhaps this is the first line of semi-accurate info.


    It is likley worse than just leaking around the casing ...
    other problems of deep structure leaking in distant fissures is probable as well.

  9. Doing some basic math we can see that the 20-70K PSI is grossly exaggerated.
    The pressure of liquid acting on a container or other body increases at the rate of 1 atmosphere or about 14.7 lbs. per square inch for every increase of 33 feet in depth. So doing the math results in:

    5000/33=151.515x14.7=2227.27 PSI at 5000 feet under water. We know that the oil has to overcome that 2227 PSI to escape. Looking at the oil as it comes out of the well head we can see it lose it's flow pressure fairly quickly. I'd be surprised if the oil coming out was more than 3000 PSI. A far cry from 20K, let alone 70K.
    It's a friggin' mess, but the end of the world types do themselves no favors by grossly over stating the facts.

    OK let's get real about the GOM oil flow. There doesn't really seem to be much info on TOD that furthers more complete understanding of what's really happening in the GOM.
    As you have probably seen and maybe feel yourselves, there are several things that do not appear to make sense regarding the actions of attack against the well. Don't feel bad, there is much that doesn't make sense even to professionals unless you take into account some important variables that we are not being told about. There seems to me to be a reluctance to face what cannot be termed anything less than grim circumstances in my opinion. There certainly is a reluctance to inform us regular people and all we have really gotten is a few dots here and there...
