Sorry for the delay on your my response. I have had a busy day so couldn't be on the computer today. No indication how close to the insurance cap yet. Just rumor that it should be getting close. They are going to try loading the pipe with steel balls tomorrow. If this slows down the flow, they will try again to plug it with cement. This is a bugger to stop. But they aren't finished trying yet. I can just imagine one or a dozen balls getting stuck and blowing up like a cannon.

If this fails I am told they will have to pull up the pipe and run smaller casing. I am not sure what this means but it will take at least three weeks. Could be a while yet before this thing is plugged. Take Care!
