our coast and seafood industry does not need to take another hit like b.p hopefully it isn't to severe, all this going on so frequently makes you wonder if someone has some minions running around sabatoging the oil industry

It's a gas well so I don't think it's going to be to bad. Supoosedly there's no sheen visible.

Hopefully it is just natural gas but still in all we and the oilfield don't need this.

Glad everyone got safely off! Several good friends work offshore and my stomach knots up whenever I see something like this. That Asian news anchor was HOT!

report i saw said gas well and sheen was evaporating almost as quickly as it came out. still not good for the home team though. This is a dangerous business but we can only hope the tree huggers wake up one day and realize how vital it is and what the outcome would be of just shutting it down

Yep that's a fire! Looked at it early this am and just gas was coming out. That much gas a light bulb in drillers shack would ignite it
