«Last Resort» Safety Device Failed in Fatal Drilling Incident
April 30, 2010, 12:07 AM EDT
By Joe Carroll and Mark Chediak
April 30 (Bloomberg) -- A 2-foot-long metal clamp that failed to cut a pipe on the ocean floor may have cost 11 workers aboard the Deepwater Horizon oil rig their lives and cast a sprawling sheet of crude toward fisheries, wildlife sanctuaries and beaches.
All subsea oil wells are equipped with steel blades known as shear rams that are supposed to slash through the pipe at the top of the well during dangerous pressure surges when all other safety devices fail, said Ron Bohuslavicky, the senior well- control instructor at Well Control School in Houston.
The U.S. Coast Guard and BP Plc, which was using a Transocean Ltd. rig to drill the well that erupted on April 20, have been struggling to contain a gusher of crude that has been spewing from the seafloor for more than a week. A 2002 study commissioned by the U.S. Minerals Management Service, the agency that oversees the offshore oil industry, found that 50 percent of the shear rams tested failed to cut through pipe and halt the flow of oil.
«It’s a bad situation», said Bohuslavicky, who teaches employees from companies including BP and Transocean how to control blowouts. «The shear ram is the last resort when something like this happens, and if it had done its job then they probably wouldn’t have lost all those people and the rig».
BP burned a section of the slick on April 28 and may set more of it alight as it nears shore and covers an area twice the size of Maryland. At the current leak rate of 5,000 barrels a day, by the third week of June the spill will exceed the volume dumped during the Exxon Valdez incident off Alaska in 1989.
Louisiana Governor Bobby Jindal declared a state of emergency yesterday and ordered state agencies to prepare coastal areas vulnerable to crude washing ashore. BP, which drilled the Macondo well in 5,000 feet (1,524 meters) of water about 40 miles from the coast, said oil may begin reaching land today.
The shear ram is part of a piece of equipment known as a blowout preventer that sits atop a well to reduce the force at which oil and gas travel to the surface from thousands of feet underground.
If the blowout preventer fails to control the pressure shooting up from the well, the hydraulically powered shear ram is supposed to sever the pipe and close it off to protect the rig and work crews from the flow of explosive oil and gas, Bohuslavicky said.
Cameron International Corp. of Houston provided the blowout preventer used on the Macondo well. The 11 deaths made it the deadliest U.S. offshore rig explosion since 1968.
BP discovered a third leak on April 28, raising its estimate of the total flow to almost 2.5 gallons per second. The effort to combat the leak and skim crude from the sea is costing BP and its partners in the well at least $6 million a day.
Boots & Coots Inc. of Houston and Amarillo, Texas-based GSM Enterprises Inc., two of the companies that extinguished hundreds of oil wells in Kuwait set ablaze by retreating Iraqi troops in 1990, have been brought in to help cap the leaks.

GREEN DAY «Boulevard of Broken Dreams»
I walk a lonely road The only one that I have ever known Don’t know where it goes But it’s home to me and I walk alone I walk this empty street On the Boulevard of Broken Dreams Where the city sleeps And I’m the only one and I walk alone I walk alone… I walk alone I walk alone… I walk a...
Припев: My shadow’s the only one that walks beside me My shallow heart’s the only thing that’s beating Sometimes I wish someone out there will find me Till then I walk alone I’m walking down the line That divides me somewhere in my mind On the border line
Of the edge and where I walk alone Read between the lines What’s fucked up and everything’s all right Check my vital signs
To know I’m still alive and I walk alone I walk alone… I walk alone I walk alone… I walk a...
Припев: (тот же)

Chapter 3
There was music from my neighbor’s house through the summer nights. In his blue gardens men and girls came and went like moths among the whisperings and the champagne and the stars. At high tide in the afternoon I watched his guests diving from the tower of his raft, or taking the sun on the hot sand of his beach while his two motor-boats slit the waters of the Sound, drawing aquaplanes over cataracts of foam. On week-ends his Rolls-Royce became an omnibus, bearing parties to and from the city between nine in the morning and long past midnight, while his station wagon scampered like a brisk yellow bug to meet all trains. And on Mondays eight servants, including an extra gardener, toiled all day with mops and scrubbing-brushes and hammers and garden-shears, repairing the ravages of the night before.
Every Friday five crates of oranges and lemons arrived from a fruiterer in New York – every Monday these same oranges and lemons left his back door in a pyramid of pulpless halves. There was a machine in the kitchen which could extract the juice of two hundred oranges in half an hour if a little button was pressed two hundred times by a butler’s thumb.
At least once a fortnight a crop of caterers came down with several hundred feet of canvas and enough colored lights to make a Christmas tree of Gatsby’s enormous garden. On buffet tables, garnished with glistening hors-d’oeuvre, spiced baked hams crowded against salads of harlequin designs and pastry pigs and turkeys bewitched to a dark gold. In the main hall a bar with a real brass rail was set up and stocked with gins and liquors and with cordials so long forgotten that most of his female guests were too young to know one from another.
By seven o’clock the orchestra has arrived, no thin five-piece affair, but a whole pitful of oboes and trombones and saxophones and viols and cornets and piccolos, and low and high drums. The last swimmers have come in from the beach now and are dressing up-stairs; the cars from New York are parked five deep in the drive, and already the halls and salons and verandas are gaudy with primary colors, and hair shorn in strange new ways, and shawls beyond the dreams of Castile. The bar is in full swing, and floating rounds of cocktails permeate the garden outside, until the air is alive with chatter and laughter, and casual innuendo and introductions forgotten on the spot, and enthusiastic meetings between women who never knew each other’s names.
The lights grow brighter as the earth lurches away from the sun, and now the orchestra is playing yellow cocktail music, and the opera of voices pitches a key higher. Laughter is easier minute by minute, spilled with prodigality, tipped out at a cheerful word. The groups change more swiftly, swell with new arrivals, dissolve and form in the same breath; already there are wanderers, confident girls who weave here and there among the stouter and more stable, become for a charp, joyous moment the center of a group, and then, excited with triumph, glide on through the sea-change of faces and voices and color under the constantly changing light.
Suddenly one of these gypsies, in trembling opal, seizes a cocktail out of the air, dumps it down for courage and, moving her hands like Frisco, dances out alone on the canvas platform. A momentary hush; the orchestra leader varies his rhythm obligingly for her, and there is a burst of chatter as the erroneous news goes around that she is Gilda Gray’s understudy from the Follies. The party has begun.
