    Brad Wehde BP Deepwater Horizon Catastrophe Solutions to Stop the Flow of Oil into the Gulf of Mexico

Jim,

I hope all is going well with you and this battle. I have come to many conclusions over the last 2 months about this whole deal. It is sickening. I have had a few different ideas since we have first talked. This last idea is the best of all and will seal the leak 100% and still allow oil to be drawn off safely without over pressurizing the well bore. I will post this solution below.

I have spent untold hours a day on this disaster. BP has had so many failures with everything that they have done. In both cleanup and a solution. I have been doing all that I can and have written all government agencies. I have like major brain drain and am becoming exhausted. Man!

I have not heard directly from anyone and don't really expect to.

2 weeks ago I sent this solution out to a number of Government offices and I think it must have been heard and I may have got their attention. The next day BP was on the seafloor to make a feeble practice attempt to remove a bolt on one of the flanges that was on the seafloor. This was a charade. I watched for 2 hours as they tried to get a socket on an impact wrench that was obviously too small. Then I did not see what they did to get it on but then the impact wrench did not have the power to budge the bolt. Honestly to me it did not look like they tried. I believe that the President or someone took this solution directly to BP and BP wanted this to fail... They don't want this stopped. So after that charade I am sure they told the Government that "see it won't work". After I saw this I was irritated so I spent five minutes on Google to find a hydraulic torque wrench and came up with more than 5 companies that make a wrench specifically for this job. I sent links to all that I found. What do you know, the next day they were down there again with one of the wrenches that I said and low and behold the bolt came out. The tool that I have in the detail below is better than the one that they used. Anyway after that attempt I have not seen nor heard about the attempt below but is the best option that I see. I would talk to ANYONE that can come up with a reason why this won't work. The solution is simple and again I am sure now BP is aware and it goes to prove that BP does not want this oil to stop flowing. I can come to no other conclusion that we are under a Terrorist Attack!

I don't get it all but the evidence mounts more and more each day.

I can go on about that another time but I think this needs to get out so people can see the simplicity and merit that this has if they would quit with all other attempt that they set up for failure.

FIX THE LEAK 100% WITH OFF THE SHELF PARTS

STEP BY STEP

1) Remove flange with this riser tool http://www.francistorque.com/rt_series.html This is a better tool than the one they used on 6/10/10 as it has the most torque and a feature that sets the wrench in speed mode when there is less torque required.

2) Make up: 21inch flange then gate valve then another 21 inch flange with a male deepwater collet connector from Cameron like this or similar http://www.c-a-m.com/content/products/product_detail.cfm?pid=2809&bunit=dps

3) Mount new valve system to flange on top of BOP

There are a number of ways to do this and I am sure that the best minds are aware of many techniques, methods and tools to do this with fluid at full pressure.

I believe that Cameron, Oceaneering, Oil States all have guides and other tools to help make this connection.

Another option that Red Adair has used was to put one bolt in the flange and then rotate the flange into place. Might not be the best method here but could have some merit.

Another method may be with a guide welded to the bottom of the new valve system and stab onto it then bolt in place. Even possible to insert a guide pin in the extra holes available now for the unused Choke and Kill lines.

More complex solution below because they would have to be modified and may be more cumbersome.

using something similar to this from Cameron the Cameron vertical connector

http://www.c-a-m.com/content/products/product_detail.cfm?pid=2849&bunit=SUB

or a Remote Clamp Connector Like this from Oceaneering

http://www.oceaneering.com/subsea-products/pipeline-repair-systems/diverless-connection-and-repiarsystems/

4) Now you can take the female Diverless collet connector attached to the 21 inch riser to the drill ship and connect this to the top of the New valve system.

Now when done

1,The connection should be 100% leak free.

2,You can throttle the flow with the valve if need be or desired, maybe in another top kill event if that is even in the cards(doubt it).

3, With the Collet Connector you can easily disconnect in the event of a Hurricane.

4, This can be built rapidly with off the shelf part from your local off shore oil improvement stores.

5, If you have a problem with installation I am sure that their customer service dept will be glad to help.

PLEASE GET THIS TO THE RIGHT PEOPLE!!!!

BP is in control of most of our media. That in itself has never been done as far back as I can remember. The MOST important thing that we can have is INFORMATION!!! BP has managed to control that.
We had reporters on the front lines in the gulf war’s but we can't even get them onto the beach it film a dying bird.
THAT IS HOW MUCH CONTROL THEY HAVE>>>>!
People have to WAKE UP!!!...

We have no one that is protecting our constitution.

Every member of Federal Government is in Violation of the oath of office..

I, [name], do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter. So help me God.

 

Was this Disaster engineered??

Well let's see.

There were at least 4 know problems with the BOP.

Any one of these problems can cause a catastrophic failure in case of an emergency. Was BP aware of these? Yes.

 

BP demands to displaces mud with seawater against the recommendation of Transocean, within a few minutes Transocean called for a helicopter to get them out of there because they knew the risk.... See More... See More

 

Did BP collectively know all the conditions of the well, pressures and equipment? Yes, the top engineers and or exec's most likely did.

 

For a company with "The Best Minds and Engineers and Scientist" Would they not know collectively what could happen? I would hope so and if not they should not even be in business.

 

Would this look like an accident to the average layperson? Yes.

 

Could it be engineered that just one of these know problems cause this disaster. I would think so.

 

There was more redundancy that could cause this catastrophe then what is left to prevent it.

 

Was this Engineered???

 

After the "Accident"

 

At day 57 we are no closer to slowing down the flow of oil then on day 1. Actually the flow is much worse.

There have been many failed attempts by BP to stop the flow. All of them looks like they could have been set up to fail. Many.

 

Clean up efforts, they seem to be more interested in stopping the media than stopping the flow of oil.

 

Have they done everything that they can do to protect the shores?? It is reported no.

It seems as every attempt they make they throw a banana peel in front to make it fail!!!

Cover up after cover up, delay after delay, Lie after lie.

We have to ask WHY,

Is it so our economy can be destroyed?

Our shores and wild life can be destroyed?

Our government is controlled by BP

Our media is controlled by BP.

Our Coat Guard answers to BP.

EPA answers to BP.

 

I HAVE TO ASK,

ARE WE UNDER A TERRORIST ATTACK?????

 

 

 

WE UNDER A TERRORIST ATTACK?

 

 

 

PLEASE READ THIS TO THE END!

 

 

ATTENTION, We are under attack.

 

This is just part of the story.

 

I open this letter and ask that you read this with an open mind to understand. We are under A TERRORIST ATTACK do not take this lightly.

I am a very intelligent person who does not think of conspiracy theories but this is the only logical explanation.

We think of war or an attack with explosions and bombs and such, but the best and most destructive form of war is to disguise  it as an accident or

Natural disaster. This strategy leaves us unaware of an attack and allows maximum destruction and devastation to occur.

Think about this and the pieces fit together.

Just from starting with the Obvious. BP Does not want to close this well.

There is a lot of proof to confirm this. The solutions to close this well safely are simple and I will post them below in an outline.

 

 

BP has stated that  "BP has the best engineers, scientists, minds and professionals in the business" If this were true they would come up with something other than what they have done so far.

The ridiculous failures are evident. These feeble attempts that they have made are childish at best. I don’t think that anyone can disagree. If they did have the best and applied this brain power then the results would have been different. I ask myself WHY if they are so smart did they do something so dumb? There is only one reason, they did not want to.

 

Dome(FAILED) this could have worked to a degree by eliminating the water inside the dome that cause the hydrate problem in the first place. a few different ways to do that. They just gave up on that one. They should have known this problem before they even attempted this IF they had the best minds on this.

 

Domes baby brother (FAILED)

 

The Sippy straw (FAILED)

 

Top Kill (FAILED) How can you overcome the flow of 600gpm with the set up that they had. Impossible and again the best minds should know this.

 

Junk shot (FAILED) Physics would answer this question about the size and weight direction and velocity of the objects vs. the flow rate, viscosity and the size of the aperture that it is to plug up. The best minds should know this.

 

This latest attempt the Top hat. How can a pipe of 21 inches with 7000 psi be delivered into a reduction of 75% into a 6 inch pipe without a means of mechanical attachment and seal work. It can't. Again the best minds should have know this. It is not going to work. How can the best minds not know this?

 

If they looked at the pressure at the bottom of the BOP and know the flow rate out the end of the riser before they cut the riser then they would have known the flow rate after they cut the pipe. I guarantee it would have been more than the 20% that they are sticking to. It is much more than 20% more like 200%+ The best minds would know that. The average person can look at the kink in the pipe and determine this by just observation and reasoning.

 

From watching just the solutions that they have come up with and the results from the “Best minds” out there tells me this Monkey has a tail.

 

BP has withheld So much important information to delay a solution, delay the knowledge and understanding of how much oil is flowing from the well so that they can

Say that they are being successful  with their efforts.

 

Just before this last Top Hat attempt BP told the Government that there was between 12-20000 barrels of oil flowing from the well.

As of June 9th BP claimed that they are capturing almost 16,000 barrels a day and if you look at the oil flowing out of the bottom of the Top Hat it looks like the same amount of oil coming out since the day that they put it on.

So it does not take someone better than 5th grade math to figure this out. Is this an oversight from BP? Not if the “Best minds” are involved.

The Lies continue. Why?

Unless they want to keep us in the dark. Why? To allow more destruction and devastation.

 

This is just the tip of the iceberg. I can go on in more detail with these failures, deceptions and destruction if need be but you should get the gist here.

 

All the cleanup efforts. Honestly I have not focused so much on this as most of my efforts has been on the solution to safely stop the destruction of the Gulf of Mexico.

I will tell you what I have noticed with this.

 

All the efforts have been set up to fail. You also have seen these fail. BP has spent a lot of money (keep in mind $$ is relative, they make 93 million a day PROFIT) so far on the cleanup efforts.

Ground crews raking up tar balls where they can be seen by the major population. This gets press and people think they are on top of it. This is the perception is reality. BP wants you to believe this to buy time for more destruction to happen. Same holds true for their Kindergarten experiments to close this well, buying time for more destruction. Think about it.

They put booms out at the beginning (all over) most have been sitting in the same place now for weeks soaked in oil no longer doing their job, useless. The job that they did do was to create a perception that something was being done. Now they are just polluting.

The dispersant also makes the booms useless because it allows the oil to travel underneath the booms. Good plan BP Use more dispersant.

Why is it that they need to ONLY use the most toxic dispersant out there? Why? Create more devastation and destruction

I am sure you saw on TV a guy in a boat with rags wiping blades of grass in a marsh, are you serious??? Do I need to explain this one? Perception is reality, BP says they are doing everything possible??? Not really.

I will tell you that the best minds have been working on what they want us to believe so the destruction can be maximized. Think about this some more.

Also as you know we have been lied to about the flow of oil from the well from day one. Why?? So we don’t panic and know the truth.

There was a lot of press about the device that Kevin Costner came down there with, where is that right now? My guess is sitting on a dock somewhere!

Where are the tankers?

Where are the skimmers, I see there are a lot of them sitting in ports tied up. Why is this??

What about the use of dispersants? Even though it is proven that the dispersants are proved toxic and EPA requested that they be stopped BP continues, Why? More destruction!!

There are so many people crying all throughout the coast for equipment, skimmers booms and get nothing from BP, they don’t even answer. Why??

This one defies logic to me. There are MASIVE plumes of oil beneath the surface of the waters that have been tracked. If this is the case it would seem to my logic to

Get in there with a tanker and pumps and suck them up as right now they are contained in basically one big glob. This should be done before any storms or hurricanes come in.

Again I ask why. If a company that makes 93 million dollars a day profit and has the best minds, engineers and scientist working on this cannot see this logic tells me one of two things.

They are not as smart as they claim or they don’t want to.

I ask WHY???

I don’t think they are or can be that stupid so that leads to only ONE thing.

They don’t want to.

I ask again WHY??

 

They have also managed to keep most Reporters from seeing what is really going on everywhere. They closed the airspace over the Gulf, they closed the waters, the beaches from reporters. This is not all because of safety issues. There are many way to deal with the safety issues but that is not even an option because they don’t have time. I call BS. Again I ask WHY??

Perception is reality and they want everyone including the US government to see and believe what they want them to. Think about this. And WHY?

More time for more destruction.

BP Tries to Bribe government officials. WHY?

BP is manipulating Google search. WHY?

You have to see now that we need to take control because we are UNDER A TERRORIST ATTACK!!!!!

Is it from BP or is there something else behind this?? This is where it gets a little complicated. There is much more to this story as you now can start to imagine.

I hope to GOD that this does not fall on deaf ears and the destruction of this Country, Gulf of Mexico and the Planet continue.

 

 

As I promised at the beginning is the only 2 fastest and safest ways to immediately control the flow of oil are below.

 

Both of these solutions use Off the shelf parts available at

http://www.oceaneering.com/

http://www.oilstates.com/fw/main/Offshore-215.html

http://www.c-a-m.com/index.cfm

 

The most simple solution:

The first is to unbolt the flange at the top of the LMRP where they made the cut on the riser.

Install a new flange with a valve and flange on the opposite end to attach the riser to the drill ship above.

The benefits of this method is that the parts are off the shelf,

The valve can control the volume of flow so if another top kill is still in the cards then with this

Valve you can throttle back the flow of oil and make the top kill effective.

 

 

 

The second solution left is a bit more entailed but same results.

 

 

Go to http://www.oceaneering.com/subsea-products/pipeline-repair-systems/smart-tap/

BUY THAT. Install it right below the BOP. Drill into the side that already has the BLOWOUT caused by the FAILED top kill (we know it is there even though BP has not told us)

 

THEN BUY THIS  http://www.oceaneering.com/subsea-products/pipeline-repair-systems/piggable-wye-fitting/

attach this so you can plug up the BOP with material that will plug the bop like wadded up Kevlar fabric for an idea.

 

On the straight end place a 90 degree elbow with a flange run that to your riser up to the drill ship.

on the y part this is where you are going to send in your plug for the BOP, Unless you have something FOR SURE this time BP that is better, use a bunch of wadded up Kevlar fabric.

 

WE REALLY DON"T HAVE ANY OTHER OPTIONS. anyone can check this out with an engineer and it is doable with existing products. 100% seal, diverts flow to the drill ship so it does not cause undue stress to the well casing that we have been told by BP to have been compromised.

 

Does anyone have a better idea???

 

PLEASE CONTINUE TO READ THIS IS IMPORTANT!!

 

On June 6th BP did a underwater charade to show that this method was too difficult to attempt. Executives asked BP about this solution. BP responded with another deceptive maneuver to dupe the executives with this intentional feeble attempt to show that this was not a practical solution. This is a lie. They proceeded to demonstrate the difficulty in removing the studs on the flange from a riser section lying on the sea floor. I watched for over an hour the ROV below trying to get a socket on the bolts on the flange. Now the socket was too small. This was their first attempt to dupe the viewers. Second, after a good period of time I did see that they got a socket on the stud and then the impact wrench just sat there. They wanted to give the impression that it can't be done.

The method I described above is the most logical, simple, and most ready approach to stop this leak.

 

   4 solutions to their little charade, 1 chamfer the inside of the RIGHT size socket so it is guide onto the stud, 2 ask NASCAR how they can jam their sockets on the tires practically blindfolded in seconds, the third has to do with the impact wrench itself.

Either turn up the power on it or get a bigger one.

Within 5 minutes on Google I found numerous links to these tools SPECIFICALLY DESIGNED FOR THIS PURPOSE.

http://www.torqlite.com/index.html

http://www.francistorque.com/news_events.html

http://www.powertork.com/riser.html

http://www.bmftorquewrench.com/si_r_wrench.htm

 

There is NO reason that these tools will not work subsea. Don’t let anyone from anywhere tell you this.

 

 

I ask you to get this to the right people again. Don't let them be duped again. If there is any questions as to the methods described, Contact me.

The lies, cover up’s, deception goes on and on. You have to start seeing this by now!

This has unnecessarily gone on way too long, the evidence mounts more and more each day.
