did you happen to read this Utopian??
Halliburton (HAL.N) said on Friday it agreed to buy Boots & Coots (WEL.A), a company that provides pressure control services for oil and gas wells, in a stock and cash deal worth about $240 million.

We can't control an oil flow and they want to create miniature black holes in Switzerland and attempt to create a miniature star in California...

British Columbia still wants to go ahead with off-shore drilling
while Obama has put a stop to it now even though the ban was recently lifted. Good for him. Too bad Canada won't learn from this. We'll be drilling into very unstable areas in the Queen Charlotte Islands.

i wonder if this anything to do with the fact that the rig was not anchored to the sea floor with anything but the pipe bringing the oil up....that just seems like a bad idea from the beginning.
- I don't get the logic of those kinds of platforms either. Been reading a bunch about these things.mg33

Surely these 'caps' or domes or whatever the fuck they are using to plug this thing...surely they should have a gazillion of these fuckers ready to be deployed the minute something like this happens...I mean for fuck's sake, this is an industry that is dripping money. Why are these caps not mandatory on oil rigs?
Or am I just being too simplistic here?
- i wanted to say no, but at least 1 or 2, yeah, i'd think soquack
