    How so? Maybe the cleanup, but I don't see the oilflow being plugged any quicker. This well cannot be conventionally capped, and the only permanent way to do it is to plug it from the bottom. Those wells being drilled (two of them) take a specific amount of time.

    Well, golly, I don't know about that, but considering that the maximum depth of the Arabian Gulf is 300 freakin' feet, I would hope so.
