Deepwater Horizon Page #3

Synopsis: In April 2010, there is no oil exploration operation in the Gulf of Mexico to compare with the Deepwater Horizon oil rig with its size or sheer depth of its drilling. However, the project for the BP oil company is beset with technical difficulties to the point where the general operational supervisor, Jimmy Harrell, and his Chief Electrical Engineer, Mike Williams, are concerned potentially dangerous trouble is brewing. Unfortunately, visiting BP executives, frustrated by the project's long delays, order curtailed site inspections and slanted system tests to make up for lost time even as Harrell, Williams and his team helplessly protest for the sake of proper safety. On April 20, the workers' fears are realized in the worst possible way when the rig's various structural and system flaws spark a catastrophic cascade of failures that would create a massive blowout and explosion that threatens them all, even as it also begins the worst environmental disaster in US history.

- Yes sir.

- The recording equipment already going?

- Yes, Schlumberger is outside.

It was supposed to prove

in concrete down there.

- They already finished?

- Mike, how are you?

Skip, we're done?

- You have to talk to Vidrine.

- With Vidrine?

- What did he say?

- I hear nothing.

What Skip said?

Should verify the cement bond.

I think they left

without doing so.

What? Do not you...?

- Schlumberger BP sent home.

- Seriously?

Yes.

Kuchta, what does

the Bankston here?

- Good day to you too.

- What does Bankston here?

Good morning, Pete.

Te da verme want?

I am always glad

to see you, Andrea.

Where is the

bathroom, Williams?

The sign says "bath".

- Skip told you log cement?

- Do not.

Are we done here and

I'm just finding me?

I do not know what time could do

the test, because they already go.

- I'm just the captain.

- How came the positive test?

Bien. Ya are uninstalling.

- Desistalando?

- How are we?

A 166 degrees. Winds

185 degrees at 5 knots.

The sea is quiet.

Right in the middle

of the permitted area.

Still salts with the

tiny type of the bike?

- Problems with propellers?

- Andrea.

Yes sir?

Captain Landry called the Bankston

and see what it does and why.

Indeed, Mr. Jimmy.

Damon Bankston, here

Deepwater Horizon, change.

Deepwater Horizon, here

Damon Bankston, go ahead.

The manager wants to

know what they do here.

I knew this

monster we go next.

Better call her "beast".

When are we supposed we?

I was told to start charging

the drilling mud at 18:00.

Go.

I knew I did test

positive pressure.

They assume that the

negative will just as well.

- I was told to get ready to leave.

- Who?

Los de British Petroleum.

Vidrine, Kaluza. No s.

I hope the order to pick up

your mud. Any other question?

No that's all.

Vidrine and Kaluza, BP expect

to have tamed this beast...

and prepare to move the mud

at 18:
00. Right, Captain?

Right. Good

morning, Mr. Jimmy.

Suddenly. Just like that.

Thank you, Captain.

Damn phones still

do not work, Mike.

I got along with you.

Do me a favor. Go to

the dugout drilling.

Ask Jason if he Schlumberger

cement was tested.

It is understood.

Thank you.

Gentlemen, could you tell me about

the situation of testing cement?

Proof?

They will have planned? Did

they're doing? Already they did?

Yes?

Not really. Hey, Ronnie.

The breakdown of your

Mustang could be the starter.

I think they could

be the s spark plugs.

Or a cable. Or the dealer.

- It Sounds as if the engine fails?

- Do not.

I'll keep thinking about all the

expensive things that could be damaged.

- Oh, thank you.

- Hears...

Automatic or standard?

Do you know me?

And stops forcing speeds.
