Dear Telmo, oil wells went down deeper than previously estimated as feasible. Techniques are evolving. If 2, 0r 5 pipes are inadequate in transport capacity, use more. Ask the engineers - I also claim ignorance. the geological temperature vertical map is varying according to a lot of factors. Ignorance is not a good argument for not considering (and asking). John
