Gulf Oil Spill: Ken Salazar Faces Calls For His Resignation
Sunday, May 30, 2010
The hoped-for solution several months away is not a sure thing. Relief wells aren't "proven technology", they're no guarantee. And by the time it's ready, it may be too late:
"It may not be possible to fix this. What that means is that if it isn't fixed, that well will continue to gush until there's no more oil in it or the pressure gradients have matched up. It will take 9000 days (30 years) for this well to run dry, and waiting until August for the relief well to be drilled is too late to save the Gulf, the east coast of US and the N. Atlantic Ocean."
-Matthew Simmons, one of the world's leading oil experts to Dylan Ratigan this week.
