These rubberized Kevlar bags are small uninflated and can be packed
into a canister that protects the fabric from the ragged pipe
entrance.

Once in the pipe the bag is inflated busting the canister apart w/ no
sharp edges.

The bladder needs to be a few feet up the pipe and inflated fast.
Immediately pump that surfactant /dispersant into the pipe to increase
the coefficient of friction.

At 120 psig a few square feet area = many tons force.

The oil well device you are describing was invented by the Johnston
Brothers in teh 1930s and is called a "inflate packer" and is an
everyday device in the oil patch. You stuff it down the pipe and
inflate it with mud and it seals the pipe. Problem is you gotta get
it in there.

It has become obvious that the well is fractured deep under the well
head. There are many ways to plug a pipe. That will not be done because
it will do no good. I say that because I have suggested one fool proof
method to close the pipe sing a round pointed object just a tad smaller
than the pope and backed by large amounts of concrete or guy wires to
force the "needle valve" into the pipe and shut off the flow. You and
others have also suggested methods to close a pipe. That is OBVIOUSLY
NOT the actual situation. It must be that the well is damaged very
deeply and closing off the pipe will just blow the oil out of the lower
damaged parts of the well. The capture of the oil is obviously the only
thing that can be done until the relief wells are completed.

I say this because BP can't be as stupid as to not think of a needle
valve. I have no idea what the pressure is, but it must be enough to
wreck the lower well piping if the top is capped. I have no idea why the
mud and the junk were attempted other than for show.

That explains why the "dome" or funnel was their first solution.

They knew all along the pipe couldn't take any back pressure.

Hey stooopid,

1) Halliburton cemented the wellhead with pigeon snot. If the
blowout is capped, equilibrium pressure will go beyond 15,000 psig and
blow the hardware like a champagne cork.

2) The blowout is not central core, it is around the periphery of
the drill string. Ya gotta plug the annulus, jackjass. BP managers
ordered Trasocean engineers to omit placing centering rings to save
time and money. Management is perfect in every way - perfect FUBAR,
like you.

3) "Inflate" Ha ha ha. Local sea floor pressure is ~2300 psia.
Blowout equilibrium pressure is ~15,000 psig. /_\E = /_\(PV), 101.325
J/liter-atm. Yer talkin' a 20,000 psi gas compressor. Hey stooopid,
how does gas act at 20,000 psi? Critical pressure for nitrogen is 500
psi.

Wanna plug the BP blowout? Put a refrigeration collar around the BOP
(ammonia or sulfur dioxide mechanical refrigerant cycle) and
progressively freeze the oil, inner wall to pipe center. Reversible
at will. Thermally insulate the other side with benthic syntactic
foam. Crystallized paraffins have been plugging oil wells nearly
since Edwin L. Drake in 1859.
