A few pics from Macondo-Deep Water Horizon
Deep Water Horizon Burning
DVA-Direct vertical access-Q-4000(Red and white rig below center), Ocean Intervention 3(blue/white center-the "little" boat that could) as key players(directly accessing well at main kink)-also shown, BOA Deep Sea(Oceaneering ROV's),Viking Posiedon(Oceaneering ROV's, Veolia-Hydraulic shear cutter),Skandia Neptune(end of toppled well casing)-Drill ship is the Discovery Clear Leader-receiving well fluids.
Inbound Helo over Clear Leader flare
The main break(the kink)
Ocean Intervention 3, sub Maxx 3 moving in to cut choke and kill lines from the well tree BOP, THIS ONE MILE BELOW THE SURFACE ROUGHLY.
more of same, roughly sequencial.......
Skandia Neptune in backround monitoring the toppled end of the marine riser, sending fluids to Clear Leader to be flared off, dispersant boat spraying...
Memorial Day crowd.....part of the largest fleet of Heavy subsea construction vessels ever assembled over a single location.Junk shot was a "no joy"-
we are now prepping for Tophat.
Traffic....you can't begin to know! 6 Heavy construction ROV's working up each others as*es, round the clock, to prep well head for shearing the riser.
Amidst it all, Nature....several storm blown Hawk and Falcons find temp safety up on the cranes and derricks, shown is dinner remains of a green Heron. Once they fueled up on the sea gulls and non pred birds, they are able to fly in safely.Many remained for the duration -sailing in with their
adopted homes.
will continue later....time to feed!!!!!
