Not to put any more pressure on the Top Kill Team, who must already feel the weight of columns of 17 ppg mud on their shoulders, but this has to be the most significant well control operation in history. No BOE reader needs to be reminded of the environmental, economic, social, resource policy,and political importance of this operation. In Washington, where drilling experts are now plentiful, all eyes are on an operation deep beneath the Gulf of Mexico.
This will be a dynamic kill – the flow of drilling mud entering the well has to overcome the flow of oil and gas exiting – flow vs. flow, density vs. density, pressure vs. pressure. Can the mud stay ahead long enough to kill the well? Will the injection equipment perform as designed? Does the well have sufficient integrity to withstand the pressure? We’ll know soon. It’s time.

They might take some of those Washington well control experts and use them instead of the mud. Maximum density.
