BP has reported today yesterday (-Sunday- Monday) that they collected 6100 10,000 barrels of oil in the past 24 hours. This is stupendous! (Note: the volume changes. It was over 10,000 in 24 hours now, but that just reinforces my point).
If this is correct, and it seems to be, if they can tune their collection device a bit more, they can collect more, perhaps much more. You do not understand the ramifications of this development. If correct, BP will go down in history as the most important cog in the wheel of energy independence ever for the United States. Please allow me to elaborate.
