Project against oil spills
Four major oil companies announced Wednesday that they will spend $ 3000 billion on a new system that is believed to contain future oil spills in the Gulf of Mexico. These are ExxonMobil, Chevron, ConocPhillips and Royal Dutch Shell. The system will use submarine equipment linked together by pipes and collectors, all connected to ships that will be responsible for collecting the oil. The system should be able to operate at a depth of 100m and be able to contain 000 barrels per day.
What about prevention? What a slab!
What about regulations requiring companies to review the design of their wells? What a slab!
And the obligation to install two valves: one on the well head and the other after the regulation unit: What a slab!
And the installation of a non-return valve / mechanism in the event of an explosion of the platform (as was the case in the Gulf of Mexico) What a slab!
