U.S.: The BP’s next plan for the oil spill? Finishing a relief well, quick
- They say they can have one ready in a matter of days. Days after BP successfully put a cap on the oil well that has largely prevented more leaking (the seepage was traced to another well), they hope to have a relief well ready to take some pressure off the oil well and prevent more damage. “The relief well is exactly where we want it, pointed in the right direction,”said BP vice president Kent Wells, who literally has the best last name ever for a vice president of his nature. source
