Depends on the subs. Yes Military Subs are classified but I have a pretty good idea. Not near as deep as you might think either. Only a handful of manned research submersibles can go a mile down. Then there was the Trieste, which could hit the challenger deep in the marianas trench at -35,814 ft.

No, I pointed out that 5000 was the NOAA and Coast Guard number. BP hasn't offered one.

I do think its producing more than 5K bpd. If this was a production well, you'd probably expect 15-30K bpd. This well's flow is estimated to be about 1/3 natural gas by volume. The damaged BOP is thought to be reducing the flow somewhat.
