      People don't realize all the strict regulations these companies have to comply with. They are STRICT. You can't even throw gum wrappers off from a platform. They move into action IMMEDIATELY if any kind of sheen is seen on the water surface.

      All this deep water drilling is hurting our Oceans, and marine life.Some probably won't hurt but it needs to be distributed with Nuclear Power and wind powered and solar energy. Quit cutting down of trees and when we do replant new ones.

      Linda S Adams , well, it doesn’t hurt it when it goes right, only when it goes wrong. I live on the gulf coast, and we got a lot of oil from BP, and, the spill made me sick at heart, but we’re the ones who demand cheap gas and oil. You can’t blame people for doing what has to be done to give us what we demand.

      A wireline plug is set into a tubing nipple that has locking groves inside rated to 5000# or higher. Once the plug is set and pressure bled off. The drill head is removed and a stack of valves is set , flanged up and tested. Then the wireline plug is equalized and pulled from the well. Hopes this answers your question.

We've made "arm extensions" that made bigger "arm extensions" and you could say the brain is the biggest muscle of all.

    • @robinj1052
      @robinj1052 2 года назад +3

      @Stephen As far as I remember, BP decided to remove the mud before the cement was fully hardened. The BOP in itself worked well, but due to a dislocated pipe, it could not close that pipe as it was designed to do.

      @rancosteel 2 года назад +1

      @@robinj1052 I read that Halliburton did not use enough spacers which caused the cement to have an out of concentricity pour. Also, the BOP batteries were dead and miswired and they did not test them prior to installation. No underwater support plate install either.

      There are MANY joints of what they call "TUBING"(Pipe) that they thread together to get down to those depths. I worked on a rig as a roughneck and once a derrick hand latching pipe back in the late 80's. Indeed, it's very HARD WORK and GREAT PAY but, it can be VERY "DANGEROUS" too!!👌🏾👍🏾🙂
