Deepwater Horizon: Well integrity test holds key to next step
Published:
Jul 13, 2010
Offshore staff

HOUSTON –  With completion of the capping stack installation on the
Macondo well  possible today, the ensuing well integrity test will lead
to  determination of the next step to be taken at BP's Gulf of
Mexico spill  site, according to Coast Guard Admiral Thad Allen,
national incident  commander.

When the cap is installed, all production will be  taken off the Q4000
and Helix Producer and go through  the new cap. At that point, Allen
said, a sequence of valve closures  will shut off the flow of
hydrocarbons into the water and will give a  check on the actual flowing
pressure of the well. If all goes according  to plan, this could start
as soon as this afternoon.

The new cap  is a form of small BOP and is designed to give control of
the existing  choke and kill lines in addition to choke and kill lines
on the cap  itself. Allen said the first step will be to close the main
ram in the  cap, check the pressure, then close the kill line and check
the pressure  again, and then begin to slowly close the choke line valve
using an ROV  while constantly monitoring the pressure. When all the
valves are shut,  pressure build up will be monitored for between six
and 48 hours,  depending upon the force encountered.

The results of these  pressure tests and the ability of the system to
hold the sustained  pressures will lead to determination of the next
step. Allen said the  ideal circumstance would be for the pressure to
hold at 8,000 to 9,000  psi for as much as 48 hours. Then, the incident
command and BP will have  options regarding production of the
hydrocarbons.

In any case,  the relief well drilling still is seen as the final answer
to the flow.  The first well, being drilled by the Development Driller
III,  is at 17,843 ft, within 60-70 ft of its target depth and less then
41/2  ft horizontally away from the wellbore.

Horizon: Containment test extended another day
Published:
Jul 20, 2010
Offshore staff

WASHINGTON, DC  – Admiral Thad Allen, national incident commander,
has directed BP to  extend for another 24 hours the testing of the
containment cap at the  Macondo well. He said that while the test
response so far is good, the  decision is to continue to check the
pressure differential in the well  looking for anomalies.

As of Allen's press conference time,  pressure on the cap was at
6,834 psi and continues rising 1-2 psi/hour.  Also, temperature of the
wellbore liquids has stabilized at 40º F,  indicating that the fluids
are consistent. There are some small leaks at  the containment cap, but
nothing indicating any problems with the  wellhead integrity.

During the 24-hour period, monitoring of the  containment cap data as
wells as the acoustic, sonar, and seismic data  also being acquired will
be analyzed. Over the same general time frame,  Allen said, static kill
plans using the relief well will be finalized  based on available data.

The response group also is considering  methods to enable capture for
analysis gas from any leaks found by  monitoring the area around the
well.

 Wall Street Apocalypse:
 
 The World of the Doomsday Investors
 
 By BRUCE WATSON
 Daily Finance, July 4, 2010
 http://www.dailyfinance.com/story/media/wall-street-apocalypse-finances-doom-and-gloom-crowd/19506748/
 
  
 Predictions of the end of civilization are nothing new, but the direst 
 prognosticators have, traditionally, existed on the fringes of society, where 
 their dark visions can be comfortably attributed to an excess of 
 libertarianism or a shortage of Prozac.  In the last few years, however, 
 something strange has happened. While there is no lack of survivalists 
 stockpiling cat food and rifles, some of the direst thinkers are now working 
 on Wall Street, where a combination of fear and foresight has many of the 
 country's money men contemplating their escape routes. 
 
 Patron Saint of Dire Predictions
 
 The patron saint of the Wall Street apocalypse society may be Barton Biggs. 
 The leader of Traxis Partners, a multibillion-dollar hedge fund, Biggs has 
 gained a reputation for his dire predictions, particularly those of his 
 much-quoted 2008 analysis of World War II, Wealth, War and Wisdom.  At the 
 end of the book, Biggs offers his conclusions from his brief study of 
 history, suggesting the likelihood of a future era in which People with 
 wealth will face another time of cholera when the Four Horsemen will ride 
 again and the barbarians unexpectedly will be at their gate. 
 
 Biggs offers some interesting advice for hedging the apocalypse. In addition 
 to prescribing a highly diversified portfolio heavily invested in equity 
 instruments, Biggs also advises that his readers buy farms to which they can 
 retreat when the hammer drops. The hedgie touts the joys of the natural life, 
 noting that landowners seem to find considerable psychic satisfaction just 
 from the knowledge of possession. There are few things as fulfilling as 
 having drinking in the sunset and looking at your fields and cows. 
 
 This bucolic perspective seems to owe more to Little House on the Prairie 
 than to any actual experience on Biggs's part. Although the author briefly 
 worked as a schoolteacher and a semiprofessional soccer player, his New 
 York-Yale-Wall Street career track doesn't seem to have left much time for 
 tilling fields and milking cows. 
 
 Stock Essentials Like Food, Medicine, Wine...
 
 But this doesn't stop Biggs from telling his readers what they need to do in 
 order to wait out the end of the world: Your safe haven ... should be 
 well-stocked with seed, fertilizer, canned food, wine, medicine, clothes, 
 etc. Think Swiss Family Robinson.
  
 He goes on to suggest that, when the post-apocalyptic hordes attack, the 
 survivalist money man should shoot first and ask questions later: A few 
 rounds over the approaching brigands' heads would probably be a compelling 
 persuader that there are easier farms to pillage. Brigands tend to be 
 cowards. 
 
 It's amusing to contemplate Biggsland, where starving gangs of brigands can 
 be frightened away by a shot from his boom stick and precious food space can 
 be taken up with wine. For that matter, while it isn't hard to imagine Barton 
 gazing upon his fields and cows, the image of the soft-palmed money man 
 slopping out stalls or picking cabbage stretches the imagination.
 
 Ayn Rand and Jim Rogers
 
 In Biggs's dark suggestion that wealthy people build rural fortresses, he 
 references another popular Wall Street touchstone: Ayn Rand's Atlas Shrugged. 
 Towards the end of the book, as frightened mobs become feral, one of the 
 looters runs away: '[Chick Morrison] has a hideout all stocked for himself 
 in Tennessee,' said Tinky Holloway reflectively, as if he, too, had taken a 
 similar precaution and was now wondering whether the time had come. While 
 Wall Street's objectivists don't see themselves as villains, many seem more 
 than willing to follow the lessons of Rand's demonic bad guys.
 
 Biggs isn't the only one offering visions of impending economic apocalypse. 
 Every so often, Jim Rogers repeats his prediction that America will be rocked 
 by civil and social unrest within the next three to five years. Then again, 
 Rogers has long since abandoned his homeland. In 2007, the famed investor 
 sold his New York mansion and relocated to Singapore, stating that If you 
 were smart in 1807 you moved to London, if you were smart in 1907 you moved 
 to New York, if you were smart in 2007 you moved to Asia. 
 
 However, if Rogers was hoping to escape an impending American meltdown, it 
 seems that he may not have gone far enough away. After a visit to India, he 
 wrote, India as we know it will not survive another 30 or 40 years. This of

You can buy into a Chilean disaster utopian community with
a golf course. Leaving the US is another notion that comes
into play, to preserve capital and avoid taxation. If you like
tornadoes and earthquakes.

Israel is a security-based economy now, writes Naomi Klein,
but such a utopia relies on capital infusion from the elsewhere.
Security biz in the US domestically is another sure to be touted
hedge, though.

Lots of generators were sold for Y2K but no innovative tech.

Key Tea Party leaders remain silent on racism









Join us in forcing them to confront racism, or admit the Tea Party is a home 
for it:














Dear Nathaniel,


Since Friday, more than 35,000 of you have demanded that Tea Party leadership 
act after one of the movement's most prominent leaders, Mark Williams, attacked 
the NAACP with a racist blog post and several offensive statements.1,2  Under 
pressure on Sunday, the National Tea Party Federation sent a Black spokesperson 
on TV to announce that it had cut ties with Williams, and his group, the Tea 
Party Express.3


It's a step in the right direction, but it's clearly not enough.  The Tea Party 
leaders you'd actually recognize, people like Sarah Palin and Dick Armey, have 
stayed silent or denied that any racism exists in their ranks.4  And there's 
been no attempt to tackle the systemic problem of racism within the Party.  
It's time for leadership to speak up.


If the Tea Party is serious about not being a home for racism there are two 
things all its leaders and groups must do now:


Publicly make clear that Mark Williams and the bigotry he stands for aren't 
welcome in the Tea Party movement

 

Adopt a clear policy stating that racist and bigoted rhetoric and imagery will 
not be tolerated — by leaders, groups, or candidates — and will result in 
expulsion from Tea Party organizations



You can help us force the hand of Tea Party leaders by calling on them to come 
out of the shadows and speak up. They need to make a choice — get serious about 
confronting the racism in their movement, or show, with their inaction, that 
they welcome and rely on bigotry as a part of their movement.


Either way, we need you to make it happen.  Please take a moment to add your 
voice now, and then ask your friends and family do the same:



http://www.colorofchange.org/teaparties/?id=2288-147537


While it's important to acknowledge that one group, the Tea Party Federation, 
met part of our demands on Sunday, the reality is that they did it in the most 
cynical way possible.  When they dropped Williams, they refused to acknowledge 
the fact that Williams went unchallenged as a key leader after he called the 
President an Indonesian Muslim turned welfare thug5 — or after one of many 
other racist rants.6  They tried to downplay Williams' role in the movement and 
maintained that there was no pattern of racism or bigotry in their movement.


How it started


On Tuesday of last week, the NAACP passed a resolution calling on the Tea Party 
to denounce the racist elements within its ranks, a bold and important move.7  
On Thursday, Mark Williams of the Tea Party Express (one of the movement's most 
prominent leaders) responded by publishing a blog post full of nasty racist 
stereotypes about Black people.8  On Friday, thousands of ColorOfChange members 
took action to back up the NAACP and demand that Tea Party leaders expel 
Williams, and what he represents, from their movement.9


On Sunday, the National Tea Party Federation (one of several national Tea Party 
groups) banished Williams and the Tea Party Express, but they refused to take 
responsibility for confronting this element of their movement, and have 
continued to attack the NAACP for raising the issue in the first place.10  
Meanwhile, the Tea Party Express is defending Williams, refusing to remove him 
from their leadership, and attacking the Tea Party Federation as an 
illegitimate group that doesn't really represent the Tea Party.11


For the Tea Party movement to show that it's serious about confronting the 
racism within its ranks, prominent Tea Party leaders need to denounce Williams 
and the bigotry he represents, and they need to make themselves publicly 
accountable for purging racism from their movement.


It's time to give the Tea Party a choice — speak up and act, or make clear that 
the Tea Party is a home for racists and racism.  You can help make that happen. 
Please add your voice and ask your friends and family to do the same:
