Ocean floor in Gulf of Mexico on the verge of collapsing

The BP oil spill is about to take a turn for the worse. The ocean floor on top of the Deepwater Horizon well is showing cracks and may be on the verge of collapsing completely, increasing the oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico exponentially.

Several geologists and drilling engineers have studied live video and pictures of the ocean floor structure next to the rising pipe and right above the BP well. They have concluded with certainty that there are several cracks visible already that may further impact the entire integrity of the ocean floor.

The partial capping of the riser pipe may have been the cause that increased the pressure inside the well and caused several cracks on the ocean floor right above it. If the floor were to lose its integrity and collapse, then 150,000 barrels of crude will find its way to the surface of the Gulf of Mexico on a daily basis.

The cracks or collapse of the floor cannot be contained nor remedied with any available technical equipment and may affect other nearby wells that still operate in the vicinity.

Scientists and experts expect that a collapse of the ocean floor will become the largest environmental disaster in history with an uncontrollable amount of crude coming to the surface and further threatening all Gulf States that are already battered and hurt.

The BP solution to use relief drills will not be available until mid August and will be too late to prevent a collapse, deemed to be imminent. More than 150k barrels of crude together with 450 million cubic feet of methane gas will be unleashed in the Gulf of Mexico on a daily basis.

All the crude oil will follow the slip stream of the Gulf Stream and travel along the Eastern seaboard as it makes its way up north and ultimately into the Atlantic.

According to documents obtained from the Coast Guard, the White House was informed of such a threat within days after the collapse of the BP drilling platform on April 22nd but failed to inform the American public.

The cracks on the ocean floor are the direct result of the single string casing used by BP and the failure to apply proper cementing bond logs in addition to only using 6 centralizers instead of the recommended 21.

No need to forward this to FIX news. They are an entertainment entity, not real news.

there's all these assertions of fact without a single reference, rather, it seems "nick doms" - a huliq member for six weeks, pulled statements out of his ass such as "The ocean floor on top of the Deepwater Horizon well is showing cracks" "Several geologists and drilling engineers have studied live video and pictures of the ocean floor structure next to the rising pipe and right above the BP well. They have concluded with certainty that there are several cracks visible already that may further impact the entire integrity of the ocean floor." sure, who are you talking about, who reported this? "Scientists and experts expect ..." that reptilians will invade our planet. "According to documents obtained from the Coast Guard, the White House was informed of such a threat within days " - read it here first!

I haven't seen any this substantiated. The video is alarming, but I do not know what is depicted. Anyone can write an article.

...by blaming the libs, is that, if we had done things your way, once all the oil has been extracted from shallow water, the oil industry and dittoheads will just call it a day and never drill in deep water? Right. It's time to grow up and stop politicizing this.

the oil is feeding bacteria - scinetists and experts have already found large black masses which will run out of oil to feed on and roll up onto the land and feast on animals the size of dogs and small children !

Mr. Anonymous (who posted on 6/21), methinks you should stop trying to think. You're bad at it. I'm quite certain that the "tree-hugging libs" that didn't want BP drilling in wildlife preserves or right next to populated coastal cities would not have approved the deep-water drilling either, but they are powerless to stop it because it's in international waters. You, quite clearly, are the delusional one here, if you think the same people who have been fighting their entire lives to keep carbon in the earth's crust out of the earth's atmosphere are in any way responsible for BP's being irresponsible idiots. If anyone other than BP is to blame here, it's the "drill baby drill" morons that would rather completely destroy our planet just to live the next few decades a little more comfortably. There are so many logical and factually fallacies in your short little rant that I'm afraid there just isn't time to address them all, but suffice it to say that you're clearly one of those that approaches market economics as if it were God himself, and thinks that any interference with it is a sacrilege. This approach to the Western economy, more than anything, is responsible for not only this disaster, but almost every other man-made disaster of the last sixty years. You're going to blame "tree-huggers" for this disaster? You might as well blame Switzerland for the atom bomb, or grasshoppers for the challenger disaster. You sir, are an idiot.

We stand in wonderment as the Asians win economic wars over America, the Chinese exceed at education endeavors over Americans, Manufacturing in America dies, Heavy industry goes off-shore, unemployment rises, dope addition reaches mystical proportions, in America, even causing turf wars in Mexican streets, it is so severe! The American automotive scene in shambles, Large American cities dying from the center outwards, Foreclosures in the 'burbs, and the oriental 4 cylinder take-over on the roads! The American diet condemned world-wide as unhealthy, and now, an oil spill that for all his blustering behavior Yankee Doodle cannot control! Even his mighty A - Bomb suggested and rejected as ineffectual! What now? Will nuclear/electric powered electric bullet trains like China's quench some of Yankee Doodles thirst for oil? Will rising prices as Asians outbid Yankee Doodle and demand a larger share of this finite world resource bidding with Yuan, more powerful than the U.S. "fiat" dollar dampen the Yankee Doodle? Hell no! He will sell out even his Gulf food supply for the privilege of sitting in and air-conditioned V-8 engined 4 wheel drive SUV! Yankee Doodle is a spoiled little brat with a low IQ and shallow morals, feasting on self-indulgences as a lifestyle. This selfish, arrogant, "entitled" monster has destroyed most the world in his narrow minded quests and will continue doing so for as long as his fiat, manipulated dollar hold out! His most vicious tool, unregulated Capitalism has bitten him on his own hand this time, it is so uncontrollable! Tony Hayward just likes to remind us all, Corporation also means "No Personal Liability" Remember: he is just a worker for a corporation, not the corporation - which only exists on paper, not in real life! and is designed to protect the shareholders from personal liability! That's how Capitalism works folks! only this time, All of America lost the gulf! P.S. your medical plans stink too! Time for the dyed in the wool Corporatists, Capitalists, to do a re-think! and by the way, and just for fun, Google, torrent, the movie, "Who Stole The Electric Car", for further insight into naughty corporatist moves on the Patriots in America! Educate yourself! It won't hurt hardly as much as your ignorance does!

Go live in a "non"capitalist" world.........better yet, go live on a deserted island where there will be at least one person who cares about your opinion.................YOU
