Why can’t they get it right? This company didn’t do any research on taking a oil pipe leak until it happen.  Just like all the other businesses, wait till the horse gets out of the barn then fix the problem. What about planning ahead just in case something happens. This is just my opinion.
Where is your technology now.

New Orleans, Louisiana (CNN) — As oil again again flows freely, crews are working around the clock to replace a containment cap on the ruptured underwater well in the Gulf of Mexico, BP said Saturday.

The company hopes to install a better-fitting one in the coming days, BP senior Vice President Kent Wells said.

“We’re on plan,” he said hours after the old cap was removed.

Live video showed robots in the process of removing six bolts from the apparatus so that the new cap can be positioned. The bolts may all be removed by Sunday.
