"At this point in the process, with a capacity of 53,000 bbl, a day there is still the concern that the well could be producing up to 100,000 bd, and so additional capacity is still required. This will come by now supplying a floating, production, storage, and offloading unit (FPSO) to the site. I had mentioned this last week, at which time BP did not seem to think one was necessary. They have now changed their minds and a vessel (rumored to be the Seillean) will be released from South America to come to the Gulf. It will take 4-weeks to arrive, and is being brought, in part, to provide insurance in case the Toisa Pisces, or the Helix Producer should have a problem. This can handle some 25,000 bd, and will raise to overall capacity at the site to 80,000 bd." theoildrum.com
