BP's Containment Cap Holding Steady But May Be Seaping Oil From the Well Head
BP’s Containment Cap
is holding back pressure laden oil from leaking profusely into the Gulf of Mexico. The problem is the containment cap is so heavy it could impact further damage upon the well head.Retired Coast Guard Admiral Thad Allen
Thad Allen is forcing BP to keep a careful eye on the containment cap for any more damage. This is a good thing. However, the well head could buckle under the containment caps pressure and cause a oil catastrophe even bigger then the one we have now.What is troubling is that everyone from President Obama to BP to retired Coast Guard Admiral Thad Allen are all aware of this and sometimes have differing views on how to handle the situation. This does not give confidence to Gulf Coast residents nor the rest of the world. Comments on a second leak close by later. What more?
