Diamond wire saw stuck

The diamond wire saw that was supposed to cut off the mile-long riser from the LMRP (Lower Marine Riser Package) has stuck in the riser this will create another frustrating delay in an attempt to slow down the oil leak.

Our latest sources show that Mr. James Cameron, the director of the Titanic movie and Abyss, Avatar amongst others, was on scene and discussing with a team of top relief officials onto the issues surrounding robotic management due to his extensive experience in this field, from the Titanic movie.

Cutting the riser of the LMRP

Insider sources told us that the environmental office of the whitehouse asked James Cameron to step up to this blockbuster disaster and it seems that it is highly likely that he accepted the offer in some manner however, an official explanation onto what James Cameron role will be is still to be announced.

BP is to remove the blow-out preventer directly above the well on the sea bed at 5000 feet depth to connect a containment cap that is currently on-site. BP is expecting to take 3 days to finish the procedure.

BP said that the method has never been attempted at these depth, therefore the two relief wells are being drilled simultaneously with the containment cap.

In this situation, the containment cap on to the lower marine riser package (LMRP) is only a temporarily fix due to the oil being siphoned into a mother ship above. Hence the two relief wells that are being drilled at a 90 degree angle on the right and left side of the well will be attempting to intersect with the pipe under the LMRP to intercept it and shut it off are the permanent fix to the problem.
