Scientists discover "other causes of tsunamis, besides the traditional tectonic earthquake".What if BP's relief wells don't plug the leak?, July 9, 2010: "I think this situation has taught us from the start to have a backup," retired U.S. Coast Guard Admiral Thad Allen, the top official overseeing the spill response, told reporters this week. ... If both relief wells fail, Allen said BP has a plan to fabricate a new pipeline, place it on the seabed and hook it up to the leaking wellhead. ... [Donald Van Nieuwenhuise, director of petroleum geoscience programs at the University of Houston] said BP also could possibly detonate a bomb -- conventional or nuclear -- in the well to try to stop the flow. more below [ link to www.floridaoilspilllaw.com] Last Edited by Phennommennonn on 09/13/2011 07:20 PM |

"The Gulf of Mexico is rarely affected by earthquakes. Any slight movement is likely to displace loose sediments that have not moved in a very long of time." September 11, 2006 The strongest earthquake to hit the Gulf of Mexico in 33 years shook the southern United States Sunday, prompting thousands of calls to authorities. The magnitude 6.0 temblor, centered about 330 miles (530 kilometers) southeast of New Orleans, Louisiana, occurred at 8:56 a.m. local time. It was felt in parts of Florida, Georgia, Alabama, Louisiana, and Mississippi. Damage, if any, was too light to be reported. The earthquake was also too weak to cause a tsunami. And Sunday's quake should have little to no effect on development of recently discovered oil reserves deep beneath the Gulf, says Randy Cox, an associate professor of earth science at the University of Memphis in Tennessee.
