Rick,

It will be interesting to see the reality of your post when this is all over. Seems a little carried away to me.

Bob

Rick / Experts

A lot of people are reviewing your comments with excitement - and I don't blame them. This is a great story.

Perhaps you can identify who the experts are that are stating the numbers you quoted. Please direct me to the source.

There have been several estimates on the volume of gas burning at the surface. Initial estimates on Monday, right after the blow-out were at 80 million cubic feet/day. The blaze increased to an estimated 100 million cubic feet/day by Tuesday morning and the latest estimate provided by the experts on location is in the neighbourhood of 400 million cubic feet/day.
