Oil spill June 3,1979 in Gulf of Mexico CAN YOU GIVE ME INFO?
There are reports that this happened before. Same type of spill and same technology. Except that it was in 200? ft of water. They said it took 9 months to stop the leak back then using same methods.
Anyone know where I can get more info about that oil spill? What was the name of the company-was it BP OIL?

That was Ixtoc 1, which turned out to be the second biggest oil spill in history. Like with the Deepwater Horizon, the well blew up, burned, and sank. It was owned by Pemex and was located in the Bay of Campeche. Much of the oil washed up on beaches in Texas but Mexico refused to help the US with the cleanup efforts.

If it does not artwork, will the oil convey the radioactive waste to the floor? Is radioactive crude going to hit the wetlands and seashores? i don't understand adequate approximately it to grant you an intellegent answer yet i understand they are able to cut back the dimensions of the bomb by ability of utilising much less radio energetic cloth. they had extra suited evaluate ALL angles in the past they pass forward on a plan like the only you're speaking approximately! EDIT I only watched the video Champs C linked to. curiously, no person knows something approximately what might take place. The customer "expert" stated it would be like the three Stooges with a nuke. whilst itemizing all the flaws which could take place yet have never been tried in the past and all the flair unintentional outcomes, even he forgot to indicate the further problems of doing something at 5000 ft below sea point, interior the chilly, on the hours of darkness and below large tension.

Mexicans are poor and lazy, I don't even blame them. If I met a Mexican willingly help out with something I'd **** my pants.
