Simmons Says Nuclear Device Only Option to Stop Oil Flow
« on: June 16, 2010, 09:12:16 AM »
Now admittance" that 120,000 barrels per day leaking or 6,000,000 Gallons...THAT'S SIX MILLION GALLONS!!!!!!

"Bloomberg — Matthew Simmons, founder of the Ocean Energy Institute, talks with Bloomberg's Lori Rothman about BP Plc's oil leak in the Gulf of Mexico and his view that the use of a "small-bore nuclear device" is now the "only option" to stop the flow of oil."

Using a nuclear explosion would create a whole new set of problems. Pretty sure that's been taken in consideration already.

The Russians said they have used it often and it works. As a matter of fact the reason this idea is being thrown around is due to the Russians. I guess they will have to weigh the options....either let it leak and hope something eventually will be found to stop it (all the while trying to deal with the enormous environmental, business, health damage or try the small nuke and hope that brings it immediately to an end.

For further evidence that SAMSON has the IQ of a jar of mayonnaise, refer to the title and premise of this thread.

Blowing up a hole that was drilled in the middle of the ocean that is now leaking massive amounts of oil with a nuclear device just mighttttttttt leave us off in a worse situation than when we started. Call me crazy.

Actually many fel that using a nuke will completely stop the leak and obliterate it.So we have some environmental concerns,Id say pouring oil into the gulf has just as many.I will gladly eat 5 lb shrimp with two heads over oily shrimp any day.

Great discussion by people that have far more practical experience than even Simmons.
