So I just sent BP a solution to stop the oil leak

I may be a hero. I'll let you know!

Can anybody tell me how much pressure is at that depth ?

It was more of a statement about the fact that it seems to be the only video played in every media outlet, than it was about what he was wearing. It went from a 1 minute report on the local news here to nationwide coverage simply because everyone gets a snicker about how the man is dressed. I grew up in Missouri and my father, grandfather and uncle were all farmers and I worked with them all the way until I enlisted in the military and left the area.

Indeed, I have to agree. Who gives a rats ass what a man is wearing for clothes, if they can come up with an idea that stops some of the damage. As I stated before, I just hope someone's idea works sooner, rather than later.

My idea is pretty solid and I think a 99% chance it will work. I don't think the pressure will be a factor because my idea neutralizes it. The only thing is that it will take a certain device that already exists but not to fit a 22" pipe so one will have to be made. This idea popped in my head about 3:00 this morning. One of those Ahaaaa moments. I found out how to get it to them and had it submitted by 4:00.

Yes. When you're farming, especially livestock and something goes wrong you have to find a way to make it work again often "Right Now", there may be many lives depending on you. Most people are way too smart to be able to farm because they lack common sense and ingenuity.

I hope it does work. Try to document it someplace (other than their web page) if you can, so you can get some credit for your idea in the event it does stop the flow.

Good luck!

Thanks. I guess my brother swimming down there to take a shit in the pipe might not work. I haven't found a line he can't plug yet.


Kidding.

This and that's a lot of pressure. Here is a good place to check your calculations.

According to that 2182 psi at 5000ft. Matches what Mr. Rukdafaiders quoted.

Correct, but the depth could be + or - 300 feet so I would go with the higher calculation to avoid any issues.

Doesn't realy matter , I was just wanting an idea. The pressure should be neutralized so I don't THINK it will be a factor.

I have no idea what your idea is, but I would also consider the pressure of the flow rate, at the location where the oil is exiting the broken pipe as well.
