Oil Spill in the Gulf

BP Oil Volcano Pressure Too Strong for Containment

June 9, 2010

Tom Buyea FL News Services - 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. In addition to the oil along the shores, there will be many dead fish, etc. that will have to be gathered and disposed of.

At some point the drilled hole in the earth will enlarge itself 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 one 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, it’s not possible to fully calculate the rise of the floor.

The tsunami wave this will create will be anywhere from 20-80 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. [End of scientist’s information release from Tom Buyea FL News Services]
