I swiped this from The PPT, posted by none other Alphadawg. If there are any geologists out there who care to chime in, feel free. In summary, it appears Mr. Devil Dog was right all along.
IT IS A VOLCANO.
Oil Volcano Pressure Too Strong for Containment
“It has been estimated by experts that the pressure which blows oil into the Gulf waters is estimated to be between 20,000 and 70,000 PSI (pounds per square inch). Impossible to control.
The estimated super high pressure release of oil from under the earth’s crust is between 80,000 to 100,000 barrels per day.
The flow of oil and toxic gases is bringing up with it… rocks and sand which causes the flow to create a sandblasting effect on the remaining well head device currently somewhat restricting the flow, as well as the drilled hole itself.
As the well head becomes worn it enlarges the passageway allowing an ever-increasing flow. Even if some device could be placed onto the existing wellhead, it would not be able to shut off the flow, because what remains of the existing wellhead would not be able to contain the pressure.
The well head piping was originally about 2 inches thick. It is now likely to be less than 1 inch thick, and thinning by each passing moment. The oil has now reached the Gulf Stream and is entering the Oceanic current which is at least four times stronger than the current in the Gulf, which will carry it throughout the world within 18 months.
The oil along with the gases, including benzene and many other toxins, is depleting the oxygen in the water. This is killing sea life in the ocean. Along with the oil along the shores, there will be many dead fish, etc. that will have to be gathered and disposed of.
At some point the drilled hole in the earth will enlarge itself beneath the wellhead to weaken the area the wellhead rests upon. The intense pressure will then push the wellhead off the hole allowing a direct unrestricted flow of oil, etc.
The hole will continue to increase in size allowing more and more oil to rise into the Gulf. After several billion barrels of oil have been released, the pressure within the massive cavity five miles beneath the ocean floor will begin to normalize.
This will allow the water, under the intense pressure at 1 mile deep, to be forced into the hole and the cavity where the oil was. The temperature at that depth is near 400 degrees, possibly more.
The water will be vaporized and turned into steam, creating an enormous amount of force, lifting the Gulf floor. It is difficult to know how much water will go down to the core and therefore, its not possible to fully calculate the rise of the floor.
The tsunami wave this will create will be anywhere from 20 to 80 feet high, possibly more. Then the floor will fall into the now vacant chamber. This is how nature will seal the hole.
Depending on the height of the tsunami, the ocean debris, oil, and existing structures that will be washed away on shore and inland, will leave the area from 50 to 200 miles inland devoid of life. Even if the debris is cleaned up, the contaminants that will be in the ground and water supply will prohibit re-population of these areas for an unknown number of years.
Take a U. S. map, lay it flat and measure inland just the minimum 50 miles of total destruction all around the Gulf of Mexico. Should what the scientists who are trying to warn everyone about be even close to being true… much of the property in Florida could be completely destroyed, including massive loss of life.”
Yikes.
We’re fucked, some more than others of course.

I wake up in the middle of the night almost every night to read you and your bloggers, Fly. That’s the scariest blog ever because what you print typically almost comes to fruition.
nice knowing you guys.
Spent some time reading through the comments of the older blog posts and the same shit keeps bugging me…
Some random posters claim to have shorted/bought/hedged/sold hours prior at wildly different prices than the current bid/ask.
Nobody gives a shit, post your round trip stuff real time or don’t post it at all.

GREAT SCOTTS!! You can’t be serious!! Head for the Ozarks!!!
My response to that ludicrous piece of crap scare mongering email (as posted in the PPT forums):
There is a mud volcano in Inodnesia that has been spurting out shit for years now, but an oil volcano? Pssshaw. The friend that is an “engineer” should be ashamed of himself for not understanding basic fundamentals such as boiling point vs. pressure relationships. I seriously doubt this was put forth by an engineer but instead is one of those typical scare the bejeebus out of people and see how popular this load of horse shit can become on the internets.
The water will be vaporized and turned into steam, creating an enormous amount of force, lifting the Gulf floor.
The well is at approximately 23,000 ft. Since this was an exploration well that was going to be converted to a producer I’m assuming it’s a vertical well. I have not seen anything to say otherwise. OK, depth increases so does pressure. As pressure increases, boiling point temperature also increases. That is why you can boil water at higher elevations at a lower temperature than at sea level.
Tb = [1730.63 / (8.07131 – log10(P)] – 233.426
Where:
Tb – Boiling temperature in Celsius
P – Pressure in torr
Pressure gradient for water is 0.465 psi / ft. At 23,000 ft this gives a hydrostatic pressure of 10,695 psi. Convert to torr we get 553K torr. Plug this into the above and we get a boiling temperature (i.e. temperature required to convert the surrounding water to steam) of > 500 C.
500 C = 932 F. If downhole temperature is 400 F, then it is much less than the temperature required to boil water. In other words, you are not going to see huge steam plumes shooting out of the Gulf of Mexico. QED.
After several billion barrels of oil have been released, the pressure within the massive cavity five miles beneath the ocean floor will begin to normalize.
Considering the reservoir was estimated to contain 100 million barrels of oil how do they expect to see billions of barrels escaping? Ladies and gentlemen, some how some way this illustrious engineer has developed a way to increase the size of a reservoir by an order of magnitude. That my friends is the answer to all the peak oil worries. Unfortunately it’s more bullshit.
In sum, put away the “End of the World Survival Kits”. Yes, the environmental affects will be terrible; but end of life as we know it tsunamis? Not a friggin’ chance in hell.
Rant over.
I thought the well was only 5,000 feet below sea level.
Sea bed is 5,000 ft below sea level. They drilled another 18,000 ft below that. 5,000 + 18,000 = 23,000.
And I thought you were just a pimp.
Good Job!
hell. yes.
reason and environmentalism have never, and probably will never, sit next to each other on the bus.
Several billion barrels of oil? So, say, 7 billion? So that well would produce $half a trillion worth of oil minimum? Please.
In 3rd grade, which would have been about, I believe, 1984, we got a science leaflet every week or month, whatever it was. In it we learned one fine month that manhattan and la would be underwater by 2000 due ot the horrid effects of global warming, and that we’d be out of oil by 1998 or something.
Yet here we are. Nothing, and I mean nothing, that we will see in our lifetime will be as persuasive and influential despite being nearly baseless in fact as the massive pillars of the environmental movement.
Use the Checklist rule of life, which helped him return well over 3x his money in 2009: the outcome of any dramatic event is generally far more normal than people predict during the height of the drama.
Indeed. Every insurer and BDC in the world did not go broke, nor did every bank, nor did every chemical company (ash and dow) nor did every company with significant debt. The ultimate outcome proved far more normal than anybody was predicting at the time.
This will too. That doesn’t mean it won’t be bad. It just means that life on earth isn’t exactly going to be threatened here.
There are 300 million trillion gallons of water on earth. So if “several billion barrels” of oil were actually released, that would put it at 1 part per billion in the water.
And don’t underestimate the ability of nature to survive. Mankind does not put most of the oil into the oceans that winds up there, natural seeps do.
“reason and environmentalism have never, and probably will never, sit next to each other on the bus.”
Every well-motivated interest group has some extreme voices. Only fools and the disingenuous use these extremists to discredit the group’s cause.
Now remember: Don’t eat the fish, or you may further impact your mental capacity.
600 Trillion barrels of oil will be released into the gulf. It is science.
By barrels you mean ocean beds full… and by 600 trillion you mean 600 trillion times 600 trillion times 600 centillian times 18 dodecahedrillion.
lol, who’s running these numbers Dr. Evil? I’ll need 1 jillion bobillion mozillian popillian fragillion dollars to stop the oil leak or else I will shine the giant laser and melt off the earth as the oil engulfs into flames.
bad ass post, btw, pimp
Po,
Thanks for adding a few facts.
With all due respect to Alpha & Fly, stick to your day jobs. It was irresponsible to post this ridiculous fiction.
What about the solar flare and the “hole in the ozone layer the size of the US” and that whole ordeal? 2011-2013 solar flare to melt the americas or is that more garbage.
I’m no geologist, but if any of that shit is true wouldn’t the government be forced to try the nuclear option, as used by the Russians in the past? NUKE THE DRILLERS!!!
WTF? Russian didn’t use anything like that. They only tested the nukes in Kazakhstan proving ground aka “Semipalatinsk”. If you are considering the nuclear option, ask fellow Taliban warriors, they will be glad to help.
Obama wants to bleed BP dry first, then the nuclear option. This is change we can believe in.
My hordeolum hurts bad now.
Seriously, this piece is making the rounds but can’t be found in any traditional media, for good or bad. So, when the 2 relief wells are complete, will this decompress the issue to the point there is no armageddon?
Think about it.
At 70,000PSI the relief wells will BAMMO too. Just like the DeepWater horizon. Then we will have 3 holes puking up oil instead of one. All life in and around the Gulf will cease to exist.
Very nice po pimp, well deserving of a QED.
If this shit turns out to be true, you can just blame it on bush or some shit.
If it turns out to be true, we’ll all be dead… well at least our Gulf coast residents will be. A real enterprising con man could start selling beach front properties in Oklahoma City and Little Rock. Doubt there will be many takers though.
Quot Erat Demonstratum or Quantom Entanglement device?
What a bunch of horseshit. You would have to move a huge volume of earth almost instantaneously like a seaquake (undersea earthquake) to get such a result. Seismic activity is measured in near real time all over the earth. If such an event begins to happen there would be most likely be a series of tremors before a catastrophic failure of the seabed. We would know in advance if the seafloor was lifting much like seismic activity in a volcano before an eruption. Water replaces the oil in a worst case scenario.
Hang on… This sounds iffy to me. Steam wouldn’t be able to get down to the core for two reasons.
1. I believe there is extreme outward pressure at the core
2. Gravitational pull begins to reduce as you begin to reach the core.
I don’t think these events can happen.
The piece also says scientists have been been warning about this scenario. Like when? I haven’t read anything like this.
However I am going from high school science on this one and haven’t been peer reviewed.
Not a credible scenario.
The relief wells better work – else it will spill (for a long time) with little hope of further control until the downhole pressure falls to the point where the cavity seals itself – not a happy scenario. Even then it won’t stop altogether. I’m dubious about the nuclear option.
Its estimated that the earths crust has about 2X the amount of water saturated within the crust then there is water on the surface. All of earths water on the surface is eventually recycled. The water goes deep enough to where it is superheated, then shot up. There are huge undersea gysers that shoot up superheated water that under normal pressures would be steam, but due to the pressures its water so hot it could melt the hardest metals.
Water is already down there. Its a natural process. The oil pressure will normalize it will stop gushing out. Btw, it will take years, before that pressure normalized naturally. So we need to stop this asap. Nature isnt going to do it by its own. Russia had a natural gas leak that was on fire for 3 years before they finally decided to just nuke the darn field. They managed to stop it with the nuke explosion. Im not sure how.
With the oil pressure normalizing, the remaining oil would eventually be held down by the amount of water pressure above it. The surface of the crust is 1 mile under the ocean. The oil reserve is 19 miles below the crust. I dont see water somehow making its way down 19 miles of piping, bypassing all that oil to make it to that reserve. (BTW I thought oil was formed from living organizms like dinosaurs and plants and shit like that, how did oil manage to form 19 miles underneath the crust, under a mile of ocean? If someone knows the answer to that I would appreciate you posting it. Its gotta be a fascinating read.)
Anyways. I dont see that tsunami effect happening, since we already have water close to that area. Chances arent likely the water could somehow make it into that resevoir. And if it did, that oil well isnt going to naturally lose pressure for years. Lots of years.
how did oil manage to form 19 miles underneath the crust, under a mile of ocean?
Here’s a hint, first the reservoir is 3.5 miles below the seabed, not 19 miles. Second, the Gulf of Mexico has not always been there. Back when Fred Flintstone was walking the Earth the area was not covered in water. Plants and animals were present.
Shit changed and the dead plants and animals slowly but surely got covered in mud and silt. This process continued for millions of years creating a deeper bed of dirt on top of the dead organisms. As the dirt heap got “deeper” the pressure exerted became greater. Eventually the pressure and temperature became great enough to convert these organisms into hydrocarbons.
Very over simplified explaination, but that’s the general gist of it.
wow I thought it was 19 miles under the crust. I keep watching these News channels and all they manage to do is confuse me. They never get the damn facts straight.
They kept on saying the broken pipeline is 1 mile under the ocean repeatedly so I am assuming thats right.
For some reason I kept on hearing 19,000 or 19 something when it came to the actual depth of the reserve.
All the media does is find a way to add fancy dramatic music to this disaster and get dramatic soundbites instead of emphasizing the facts.
you mean 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea is not true?
The wellhead is approximately one mile below sea level. One mile = 5,280 ft. Sea floor at this particular location is 5,000 feet… close enough.
Probably the 19,000 number you hear is referring to the drilled depth of the well. From the seabed to TD (total depth) the well was 18,360 ft. I guess they took a bit of liberty with their rounding.
I thought dinosaurs walked the earth. How did it all get covered by salt water? Where did the water come from?
“BTW I thought oil was formed from living organizms like dinosaurs and plants and shit like that, how did oil manage to form 19 miles underneath the crust, under a mile of ocean? If someone knows the answer to that I would appreciate you posting it. Its gotta be a fascinating read.”
Yes it would be.
Another mystery.
Does anybody know WTF is going on with this “oil spill” scenario? We all know it’s bad, but how bad can it get is the big question.
In spite of all the number crunching and divergent theories, shit happens.
We need definitive answers. The Prez, Pelousy, Little Dick Durbin and Henry Floor-Waxman need to get cracking, like, yesterday……and they can leave out “the oil companies are the devil” bullshit and the sugar coated political verbage, cuz we’re all adults.
If they’re not part of the solution, they’re part of the problem.
So we are good then?
Any chance of oily rain? And if so, what ramifications will it have on water supply/crops?
The only good news about oily rain will be that Monsanto (aka, The Devil) will officially be out of business.
Don’t be silly.
They are working on “oil-corn” right now as we speak.
Van-goghed Luddite.

Thanks for that.
MON is another creator of a time bomb(s) waiting to explode.
I don’t think you can have oily rain. The rain comes from evaporated ocean water. When the water molecules evaporate, it leaves all the junk behind. Oil doesn’t evaporate.

Well said Po Pimp, I was going to jump in as well with my 2 cents in debunking that horrendous piece. No truth to it. Besides Po Pimp breaking down vapor vs. steam and at what temp this will actually happen at, this was an exploratory well with no proven reserve. It was estimated between 50million and 1 billion barrels. 1 billion on the very hi end. Another number that has been verified and easily found all over the web is the actual psi exiting the well, 12,000 (not measured by BP). These three erroneous errors in truth, are enough for me to dismiss the entire piece. I can only guess that the author of that drivel had an intention to incite anger and scare people into a “what if” scenario. Personally I think it’s unnecessary and irresponsible (it is the internet ya know). Are we not already scared of the repercussions of this event? I might ad that this has happened before, in modern history and in ancient history.
this has happened before, in modern history and in ancient history.
Indeud. The Ixtoc well in 1979 was also supposed to convert the Gulf of Mexico from a thriving life-rich environment into a vast lifeless waste land. But something strange happened between then and now… life went on. Some reports (don’t know how true) claimed that within 1 to 2 years there were no visible signs of any permanent damage.
I hope you’re right and my “friend” is the asshat.
I have another article, sent from a friend in texas, that says oil is good for the gulf and marshes, as well as beaches, sans pelicans
Yeah, we must have the same friends….did yours say oil was biodegradeable?
I need to take some science classes….
…..nevermind. I’ll just put a Nobel Prize winner on the payroll.
Obama will be free in a couple years.
Science!
When Saddam sabotaged the terminals in Southern Kuwait the US military estimated between 260-485 million gallons of crude were released into the Gulf. Most experts believed that those numbers were low. The Gulf healed…. Believe me when I tell you Im a very green person. I drive a hybrid for christ’s sake! Im not in love with oil companies by any means. Horrible industrial accidents are going to happen, especially when it comes to oil. The whole world has a very ugly addiction, even Obama was starting to give out new permits for deeper off shore wells right before this happened. My bet is in a year BP has setup some serious escrow accounts, the well will be capped (if not pumping again) and the Gulf will be well on its way to healing… Thats my hope, and i truly believe not to far out of the realm of reality.
If the Gulf vacation is ruined… then there’s no cherce (sic), but to head off to Transylvania!
The rest of Romania, however, you can keep, non-Carpathians.

All we need is a few hurricanes this season to spread all the oil joy around.
A-Dawg, check it… I got footage of Drunken Bob Etheridge, the Fists-a-Flailin’ Congresscritter from North Ca’hlina.
Scroll all the way down.

Funny enough, one of the factors claimed to have prevented the Ixtoc blow out from causing more environmental damage than it did was a big storm. The theory was the storm indeed whipped up the seas thus dispersing the oil. As the oil became more dispersed it evaporated easier.
This is from a vague memory of an article I read right after our current blow out began. I could be off base on this.

If my grandparents saw this, they would forward it to all their friends. I on the other hand did not just learn about email and have chosen to use it for actual communication.
Oh and thanks Po Pimp for ruining our fun. We were all enjoying end of the world scenarios and then you brought science into it. Who invited YOUR brain.
🙂
I dunno, this Worst-Case Scenario sounds pretty awesome to me.
Funny thing is, that link came out about 10 days before the oil volcano email started making the rounds. Obviously part of the coverup 🙂
LOL… sorry about that.
I think the best way to trade this email is to go short American engineering curriculums. How to do that, I’m not sure; but it’s got to be a pretty risk-free trade based on writings such as this.
Perhaps I should forward this email to my sophomore year thermodynamics professor. I’m sure he would get a chuckle out of it.
folks, in this thread po pimp is a bad-arse mofo, period. That kind of factual numerical commentary gets left way behind way too often in commentary on the FINANCIAL MARKETS. PEOPLE, PLEASE, THIS FIELD ATTRACTS A HIGHER PERCENTAGE OF THE WORLDS SMARTEST PEOPLE THAN ANYTHING BUT MAYBE PHYSICS. or whatever.
And yet the markets run back and forth in hysterical panics and euphoria, like a pack of raving bipolar monkeys, and not higher monkeys mind you, just regular stupid zoo monkeys over any and every bit of news.
Its bizzare.
And I realize that on a testosterone-fueled site like IBC that compliment is not likely to be taken seriously. And I realize that on a testosterone-fueled site like IBC everybody and anybody is claiming to be great as can be, but I will GIVE THE LAMBORGHINI I JUST SHIPPED TO LAS VEGAS SO I WOULD HAVE IT TO DRIVE AROUND ON MY NEXT TRIP THERE ONCE MY DRINKING SEBATICAL IS DONE if any of the drama in the lead post here occurs. Come to Vegas when I head there and we’ll go on a drive, if i’m not there, the car isn’t there, I’ll post a picture of my naked butt crack.
None of that was mockery of IBC, just an observation. Frankly, I think that the genius of this site is subtle and psychological and virtually missed by all, (except the PPT and its mojo which may be a seperate form of cool), and I do think there is some genius here.
The world aint’ ending, folks, not even close.
I think the Mayans projected themselves into the future and by 2012 they couldn’t see anything else because they were covered in oil.
in all seriousness, Mayans never “predicted” the world would end, their calanders have to do with cycles and in 2012 the biggest cycle of them all will come to an end and continue on again just as the planets rotate around and then continue again. The Solar system we live in will ccomplete it’s rotation around the Milky Way galaxy, nad the milkyway bar must be consumed.
Rev Shark?
Wrong.
The world already ended. This is all a stupid dream.
Off to go for menacing 3am jog.
if this is all a stupid dream, for gods sake confirm that somehow so I can get drunk. … (taking a month off booze, half way through)
That article is from an ‘end of the worlder, perma-doomsday’n gloom’, sensationalist website.
totally fucked up situation. now only yellowstone eruption missing for a definitive, total, utter fuck up.
Now that would be a good show for the endtimes. “Yellowstone Super Volcano 2012 – Be There” 🙂
2012 end of world process has started.
The continent of North America will split apart due to
water entering the gulf hole, and that’s after the temperature
down there has cooled down. The water will seep through
the earth and other materials, like cracking a rock.
This rock is called North America.
Florida and Venice La may split off America.
We may lose some states. USA may no longer have 50 states
as the land that once was a state will crumple like an egg in your hand.
Will it be as bad as the California scene in the movie 2012 ?
Future awaits us.
Florida, Cuba , and maybe NYC may not survive if a Tsunami hits them.
We may have to depend on farmed fishes from Thailand, Vietnam, and we may have to
start eating “fake” fish from China.
As an engineer and physicist I agree with Po Pimp – this is crap. Anytime anyone sees something like this the first thing you have to do is ask” who wrote this and what are their credentials and where do they work that would give some credence to their assertions?”
This site is for comedy only. This guys distant relatives provided detailed documents on why the world is flat.
How can i short the gulf? Or at least the gulf economies?
short the “sand dollar”
ha.
bad news from best buy, nice day to be hedged 😉
Or maybe not. I guess these things take time. No hurry.
I can only think that the Fly was putting you all on! Personally, I read this as a coded post: S&P is going down 50%…
Don’t worry, Al is already working on another award winning documentary that will save us all.
maybe this is what the Mayans saw as what causes their “calendar” to end in dec. 2012….
ha ha ha….
2 days after the drilling platform blew up, some guy on CSPAN said they should send in
large oil tankers immediately, surround the spill area with containment booms, and pump
the oil onto the tankers for removal to refineries. A PROVEN method. NO dispersant.
Eight weeks later, no fuckin large tankers but plenty of dispersant and excuses.
Several people should die for these transgressions. After a fast fair trial, of course.
Oil armageddon is so last week. We’re doing extinction-by-solar-flare now: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/science/space/7819201/Nasa-warns-solar-flares-from-huge-space-storm-will-cause-devastation.html
shhhhh… the government doesn’t want people to know about that as they scurry to build underground cities under airports and shopping centers and stadiums so the rich and powerful can be safe under the earth.
Isn’t there something about the end of days scenario where all (or at least a large number like 1/3rd) of the fish of the sea and all creatures within will die as the ocean turns to death and fills with blood?
Oil comes from ancient swamps, debris, vegitation, and the earliest forms of life buried under tons of earth andcooked for a million years or so.
I was predicting the solar flare bullshit one year ago and even documented it because I knew people would not believe me.
All you have to do is follow the scientists who work closely with the United Nations. All of these guys are fucking liars and assholes, They fabricate shit out of thin air to support the plans of the international central bankers and their kin who reside on the boards of the United Nations.
Don’t fall for it. Being scared and confused and preoccupied with their bullshit is exactly what they want you to do. They seriously want you to believe big socialist/fascist government is the answer to all your fabricated problems.
The whole lot of them got a demon up their ass and it won’t let go of them. It’s hungry for their sorry asses. EVen if they arrive at the Communist Perfection they seek, the next hexagram in the I Ching is “imperfection,” so I’m not so sure what these fuckers are doing up there.
I’m confused. More junk was created and they still can’t plug it? How many downgrades will it take to convince the oil that it’s no paradise up here? Stupid oil!
Well, as long as it’s here, can’t we just add a few thousand gallons of UV protection and all run naked in the sun?
Thoughts on the oilcane upside;
• Housing market gets a boost (as FL is evacuated)
• Housing market gets a boost (as LA is evacuated)
• Housing market gets a boost (as MI is evacuated)
• Housing market gets a boost (as east TX is evacuated)
• No more oil changes for your favorite internal combustion engine
• All cooking utensils will be non-stick
• Everyone gets a free heated swimming pool this winter (matchlight)
• No dry skin this winter

“POZNAN, Poland – The UN global warming conference currently underway in Poland is about to face a serious challenge from over 650 dissenting scientists from around the globe who are criticizing the climate claims made by the UN IPCC and former Vice President Al Gore.

Same goes for every “crisis” you read about the mainstream news today. And we always seem to have a crisis going on, don’t we? Fear has become the conditioned way of life.

Nice blog you have. Check out mine about Santorini Island in Greece, http://santorini-hotels.blogspot.com/ which was born of the eruption, of its volcano. I am sure you will be seduced by the view from every single corner on Santorini.
