The blowout occurred (officially) at 21:45 CDT 20 Apr 2010.
The first blogger (anchorman at Gcaptain.com) to announce the DWH accident posted at 22:34 (37 minutes after 21:57 CDT or 49 minutes after the blowout at 21:45 CDT).
How did he (on a vessel 10 miles away from the rig) know the blowout occurred at 21:45?
Excellent work. At the time I had been hanging out out at "The Oil Drum" and the forum there. I wish I had had NV when this was happening as well. Would have loved to have been following you and whoever linked me to you and whoever you link me too for all this wisdom as well.
I had not before read anything on the USCG transcripts until now.
That length of time was simply the bosses trying to cover their backsides and how to make sure the truth is hidden ASAP without regard to the POB.
Thanks Pat. Hv'n a passive follower of TOD too until their "pro-BP inclination" started to show profusely. We hv all been led by the sheep dogs.
That is exactly why I wish I had found NV then. Although they had wonderful scientific information, explanations of this function (I truely learned a lot) that function, details and such that Pro oil attitude showed as soon as I started reading through their site regarding things other than the spill.
So true. We non-oil people shud be aware from now on. Crude oil is shooting up again. Don't quite like it when it passes the $120 mark. Awareness keeps them in check I s'pose.
