"Please, be seated." "(man 2) Mr. Williams, can you please give us your best recollection of the event on the Deepwater Horizon?" "(Williams) I was on the phone around 9:30 with my wife." "That's when I heard the hissing noise." "(clears throat)" "I hear the engines start to rev." "The hissing turned into a full-blown roar." "Higher than I can even describe it." "And within seconds, there was a huge explosion." "Projectiles comin ' from everywhere." "The heat was overwhelming." "(camera shutters clicking)" "(man 2) Can you please explain to me how the Deepwater Horizon's alarm system is set up?" "(Williams coughs) The general alarm is set up to inform the entire rig of, number one, fire, number two, combustible gas, number three, toxic gas." "Each condition has a distinct tone and a distinct visual light." "(man 2) On the evening of April 20th did you hear any one of those alarms on the Deepwater Horizon?" "(Williams) No, sir." "(man 2) Do you know why you never heard that alarm, sir?" "Mr. Williams?" " (cameras clicking) - (woman) Mr. Williams!" "(beeping)" "(ROV operator on radio) Passing through 3,000 feet."

"(alarm ringing)" "(woman yawns)" "(alarm stops)" "(sighs)" "I just had the craziest dream." "Wow." "Wow?" "Was I in it?" "I was..." "No." "I was at a concert and then on the side of the stage there was this..." "It was like a two-legged rabbit and..." "I don't know what part of that is more terrifying." "Listen to me." "Listen to me." "I would move..." "And then it would mimic everything I was doing." "Oh, don't tell me anymore, because I know where this is going." " I think the rabbit was my... mother." " Mother." "Yes." "I know." "Thank you." "Now it's my nightmare." "Thank you." " It was hostile." " Okay." " It was a hostile rabbit." " Okay." "I got it." " (sighs)" " I'm sorry." "What are you doing?" "That's it?" "That's how you're gonna leave me for 21 days and nights?" "I'm lettin' you get your sleep." "Well, I need many other things than sleep." "You have to promise not to bring up your mother, though." "(chuckles)" "All right?" "So you want the 30, the 60, or the 90-second love package?" "Honey, I'm gonna take the whole 90." "Oh, the pressure!" "The pressure, the pressure, the pressure!" " Gonna miss that laugh." " (chuckles)" " Gonna miss that mouth." " Aw." "Hey." "Give me those eyes." "Love you!"

" Fine." "Honey, show Daddy." " I'm not done." " You did such a good job." "(man) It's showtime." "(woman) It's really great." " You can't look at me." " Why?" "Because it makes me uncomfortable." "My looking at you makes you uncomfortable?" " Stop!" " All right." "My dad is Mike." "He works on a drilling rig that pumps oil out from underneath the ocean." "No, no, the Deepwater doesn't pump a drop of oil, okay, baby?" "We're the explorers." "So my dad and his friends find the oil." "And then put in all the plumbing so other lamer crews can come in..." " Don't say "lamer." - (whispers) They are lamer." "Okay, but listen, even those lamer dudes, they don't have to pump anything, remember?" "Because that oil wants to come rushing up naturally..." " No, no, no, shh!" " All right, all right." "Because that oil is a monster." "Like the mean old dinosaurs all that oil used to be." "So for 300 million years, these old dinosaurs have been getting squeezed tighter and tighter..." "We get it." "We get it." "Just use two "tighters."" "'Cause they got miles of earth and ocean pressing down on them." "They're trapped." "Ornery." "Then Dad and his friends make a hole in their roof." "Yeah!" "And these mean old dinosaurs can't believe it." "So they rush to the new hole." "Then, smack!" "They run into a big machine that he and his friends have down on the ocean floor called a Big Guy Preventer?" "Blowout Preventer." "They run into this stuff called mud..." " All right, get it in there." " ...that they cram down the straw." "The mud's so thick and heavy it blocks the monsters from coming up." "And then they sail away to the next." "That's when all the lame-os show up all happy like they did something." "Don't say "lame-o."" "But it was my daddy who tamed the dinosaurs." " Yeah!" " (woman) Yeah." "That was amazing." "Stay ten forever, please." "Daddy, you need to get me a fossil." " (woman) Oh, yes." " I will." "I wanna be able to hold it up and say, "My daddy tames the dinosaurs."" "Tell Daddy what Maggie's dad did." "Her dad works at the zoo." "And he brought a real penguin." " You can't do that!" " Brought in a penguin." "How do you compete with a penguin?" " You get a fossil." " There should be rules." " (screams)" " Oh, my God." " Honey!" " What?" " There's only so much stuff in the can!" " Well, stop it!" "Stop it." "Buy gas to go to work to buy gas to go back to work." "To buy more gas to get to work." "Hey, you know the passwords, right?" "Where the insurance stuff is." "You know, call Schuman first." " What are you talking about?" " I just..." " What are you on about?" " I just..." "I just got a little spooked on the go-home chopper last hitch." "It's not..." "Gimme some of that." "Babe, the only time you start worrying about a Marine is when he stops bitching." " Don't use my lines against me." " I'm using your line against you." " Don't use my lines." " I just did." " All right, babe." " All right, Fish." " I love you." " I love you." " See ya in three weeks." " Okay." "In three weeks." " Behave." " (chuckles)" "(woman) Next." "Good morning, Mr. Jimmy."

" Where you flying out to?" " Deepwater Horizon." " And who you work for?" " Transocean." "Wanna know how much you weigh?" " You know I do." " 181." " What'd I tell ya?" "(chuckles)" " Yeah, you did good." " Keep it that way." " All right." "Alrighty." "Have a seat in the lobby and we'll call you" " when your flight's ready." " Thank you." "Mr. Sims?" " Mr. O'Bryan?" " David Sims." "My name's Jimmy Harrell." "Offshore Installation Manager on Deepwater." "Buddy, thank you very much for taking us out today." "I know you guys are swamped and you didn't have to." "No, I had to." "Listen, you mind losing that tie?" "I would." "It's not the tie." "It's..." "It's the color." " Purple?" " Uh..." "More magenta." "And?" "Well, magenta alarm on an oil rig is as bad as it gets." "That's worthy of superstition." " Good morning." " Mike Williams." " Where you headed today?" " Deepwater Horizon." "All right." "(chuckles)" "(Mike) What'd ya do on your downtime?" "(Jimmy) I started workin' on that airboat again." "Yeah?" "(Jimmy) I'm upping it from 600 horsepower to 1,200 horsepower." "And I got me a little, uh, Sensenich prop off that Super Cub." " Trying to make it fly?" " No, I just wanna make it go faster." "(chuckles)" "(air traffic controller) Loud and clear." "(pilot on radio) Roger." "Got everyone." "Hey, Bosco, I got the Deepwater Horizon coordinates in the FMS." "(air traffic controller) 492, your tail is clear." "Wind is calm. 2-1 is in use."

"(male air traffic controller) Copy that, Bristow 2 Bravo Gulf." "What is it you do at BP, Mr. Sims?" " Completions." " Oh, shit, here we go, Jimmy." "Well, as you know, we..." "We a little behind." "(Sims) Forty-three days." "But who's countin', right?" "(chuckles)" "What were you gonna do with your bonus, Mike?" " Dig a pool." "You?" " Fix my car." "You do know the first well collapsed on us?" "Took us five days just to pull a million-dollar drill pipe out." "Whose fault was that?" "What are you drivin' that needs that much work?" " '69 Mustang." " Fastback?" " Vinyl top." " What's up with it?" "Today it was a rough idle." "Made the exhaust smell like gas right out of the pump." " You smell gas when it's not running?" " No." "So it's not a leak in the tank." " (pilot) Hey!" " Shit!" "(pilot on radio) That was a bird strike, folks." "(exhales)" "I ain't sayin' nothin'." "(pilot) Deepwater Horizon is only a mile out." "We should be fine to land." "We'll run a safety check there." "Well, anything that big oughta be made by God." "That's beautiful." "And you know it's not on stilts." "It's not a jack-up." "Yeah, I do, and I still can't believe that thing's a boat." "(Jimmy) Well, you can thank this very talented young lady right back here for that." "What the hell's the Bankston doin' here?" "Who gave that order?" "(pilot) 2 Bravo Gulf, permission to land," "Deepwater Horizon." "(radio operator) Permission granted, 2 Bravo Gulf." " (pilot) Beginning our descent." " (radio operator) Roger that." "(male crewman) Welcome aboard!" "You guys already done?" "I don't know what to tell you, Mr. Jimmy." " Hey, you guys finished?" " I don't know what to tell you, Mike." " Somebody's gotta talk to Vidrine." " What?" "Are you finished?" " Hey, Skip." " Yes, sir." "Logging team is leaving?" "Yeah, Schlumberger's out." "They're gone." "Briefing said they're supposed to be testing that cement down there." " Is it already finished?" " Mike, how you been?" " Skip, are we done here?" " You gotta talk to Vidrine." "Vidrine?" " What'd he say?" " I can't hear him." "(indistinct announcements on PA)" "(Andrea) What did Mr. Skip say?" "(Mike) They were supposed to test to see whether the cement was holdin'." "I guess they left without doin' it." "(Andrea) What?" "Hold up, they didn't... (Mike) Those BP sons of bitches sent the Schlumberger guys home." " Seriously?" " Yep." " Kuchta, why is the Bankston here?" " Good morning to you, too." "What is the Bankston doin' here?" "Morning, Pete." "Happy to see me?" "(chuckles) I'm always happy to see you, Andrea." " Where's the pisser, Williams?" " Sign that says "toilet"." "Skip say anything to you about runnin' a cement log?" " He ain't call me." " We win the war here and I'm just now finding' out about it?" "'Cause I sure as hell don't know how they'd have the time to do the cement test, 'cause they're flyin' away." "(chuckles)" "Shit, Jimmy, I just drive the boat, man." " How'd the positive test go?" " (man) Positive test went well." " We're in rig down mode." " Rig down mode?" " How we looking?" " Sitting at 166." "Winds are at 185 and around five knots." "Seas are calm." "That's good." "Holding great over our watch circle." "Sitting right on top." "Are you still dating that itty bitty guy with the motorcycle?" "Any issues with the thrusters?" " (Jimmy) Andrea?" " Yes, sir?" "Get on the radio to Captain Landry on Bankston and see what he's doin' and why." "You got it, Mr. Jimmy." "Damon Bankston, this is Deepwater Horizon, over." "(Landry on radio) Deepwater Horizon, this is Damon Bankston." "Go ahead." "The OIM wants to know what you're doin' here." "Well, I hear we gettin' off this beast and movin' on to the next." "(Andrea on radio) You can call it a bitch." "When are we supposed to be leaving?" "(Landry) Well, I'm told to be ready to start taking on drilling mud about 1800." "Wow." "I heard you had a positive pressure test this morning." "I guess they assume the negative test is gonna run just as smooth." "They told me to get ready to start moving on." " Who's "they"?" " BP company men." "Vidrine, Kaluza." "I don't know." "I wait for the order and come pick up your mud." "Any other questions?" "Nope." "That's it." "So BP company men Vidrine and/or Kaluza are hoping that we have tamed this bitch and are ready to displace drilling mud 1800 hours." "Is that correct, Captain?" "(Landry) That is correct." "Mornin', Mr. Jimmy." "(snaps fingers) All of a sudden." "Just like that." "Thank you, Captain." "And the goddamn phones still don't work, Mike." " Hey, I flew in with you, Mr. Jimmy." " Would you do me a favor?" " Run down to the drill shack." " (smoke alarm beeping)" "Ask Jason if those Schlumberger guys did their job." "Did they run the cement log?" "(grunts) Roger that." "Thank you." "Gentlemen, you couldn't perhaps enlighten me on this cement log situation, could ya?" " (O'Bryan) Cement log?" " (Jimmy) Mmm-hmm." "Do you know if they're planning it?" "Running it?" "Did it?" " (O'Bryan) Mmm." " Yeah?" "Not really." "Hey, Ronnie." "(Mike) Might be an ignition problem with your Mustang." "(Andrea) I was thinking it was maybe fouled plugs." "(Mike) Well, it could be a wire." "Could be distributor." " Does it sound like it's skipping?" " Nope." "You know what I'm gonna do for you, young lady?" "Keep thinking about all the expensive things could be wrong with your ride." " Gee, thanks." " Hey, stick shift or automatic?" "Do you know me?" "Oh, you gotta stop grindin' shit out of that clutch." "I know that." " Oh, yeah." "Says Mr. Toyota." " Yeah." "Uh-huh." "(man on PA) Attention on the rig." "Rig safety announcement... (announcement continues indistinctly)" "Roughneck movin'." "Come to me, baby." "Come to me, baby." "Come on." "Bleed 400 barrels of mud." "Roger that." "Beginning actuation." "Can I say... ♪ Trippin' pipe is lots of fun lots of fun, lots of fun"" "Shut up." "Hey." "Duck!" "What up, Mike?" " How you doin', Caleb?" " Hey, Mike, how you doin', man?" "I was a lot better couple hours ago." " Why's that?" " I was asleep." " Yeah?" " Yeah." "We all got woken up and got us working over." "We got a lotta pipe to pull if we're gonna get out of here tonight." "What's up with street clothes?" "You look pretty." "Aw, man, Mr. Jimmy's pissed and wants to know if we got a cement bond log test." "I'm not sure." "I don't think so." " No?" "Hey, Shane!" " Yeah?" "Come here, boy." "Schlumberger run a cement bond log test?" "I don't know." "I don't think they did it." " I just woke up, so..." " Is that stupid?" "I don't know if it's stupid, but..." " It ain't smart." " It ain't smart." "Look at you guys." "Like synchronized swimmers." "I think you think too much, you gonna give him a headache." "All right, get the hell out of here." " All right, yeah." " Up, up, up." "(man) Okay, I'm watchin' our roughnecks." " Fellas." " What the hell are you wearing?" "Mr. Jimmy wants to know if the team from Schlumberger ran a cement bond log test." " A what?" " Cement job." "Test the cement job." "Come on, man, work with me." " Who's that again?" " Oh, cut the shit, man." " Come on, Jimmy's pissed, man." " Schlum-burger, you democrat." "Well, did we run the test?" "No, Vidrine, Kaluza sent 'em home without testing' anything." "Why in the hell would they do that?" "They never feel the urge to take me through their thinking', Mike." "But I assume it's got somethin' to do with... ♪ Money, money, money, money" "♪ Money!" "Your phones are broken." "Shit." "Hey, Mr. Jimmy." "(Jimmy) Go ahead." "BP sent Schlumberger team home without running any test." "There was no cement bond log." "Thank you, Mike." "(beeping)" "Mike, "A" chair just crashed." " Goddamn it." " Blue screen o' death again." "Hey, Duck, is your chair still up?" "(Duck) My computer screen is shaky." "And my smoke detector's out." "How you doin', Mike?" "Shit." "I'm gonna dump my bags and grab my tools and I'll be back to fix it." "Doin' it all with Band-Aids and bubble gum, my man." "Every time I peel off a Band-Aid on this rig," "I find three or four more." "Spit and glue ain't gettin' it done." "One more time with the "money"." "Come on."

"Maybe catch a beluga or Shamu?" "Good idea." "Shit." "Wanna make a bet we're at the same spot next hitch?" " Yeah, give me odds." " 50-to-1." "Ah, shit." "I ain't touching' that." " 30-to-1." "Same spot." " No way." "Mike Williams, you cheap bastard!" " Patrick." " What's goin' on, Mike?" "What's the word?" "I heard we done." " You heard we're done?" " Yeah, I heard we're done." " Who'd you hear that from?" " I can't tell y'all that, Mike." "What do you mean, you can't tell me that?" "I just can't tell y'all that, Mike." " Why can't you tell me that?" " I just can't tell ya." "But I can tell ya that Gordon's lookin' for ya." "Did Gordon tell you we were done?" " No." " What does Gordon want?" "I don't know." "He got somethin' to show you." " What do you know?" " I know we're done." "Were you in my shop?" " No." " Don't touch my shit." "(stutters) I wasn't touching' your shit." "All right, go fix something."

"Baby, if I had a nickel for all the dumb shit my mom said," "I wouldn't need a rich man." "You gotta fix this by the way." "You have got to fix this stove." "I'm gonna fix it as soon as I get home, don't worry." "Hey, come close to the computer." " Huh?" " Come over to the computer." "Give me those eyes." "How is it out there?" "Same shit."

"Touchin' my shit." "(Kuchta) I can tell ya they want us to head to our next location." "Kaskida." "Was this run by anybody at BP?" "Kaluza, Vidrine, anybody?" "Vidrine ran it by me." "This..." "This comes from Vidrine." "(O'Bryan) Bob, let me impose upon you what I think is most important here." "We need to go from Macondo to Kaskida by May 16th." "Kaskida is an uncommon prospect." "Three to four billion barrels?" "That's worth more than BP itself." "Do I look like fuckin' Santa Claus." "You do look a little like Santa Claus." "Coach Miles may have played in Michigan but that boy got Louisiana soul." " Versus Saban?" " Hey, just 'cause we win..." "Roy!" "Sayin' "we" like you went to Bama?" "(Roy) Did you go to LSU?" "(Gordon) When I was potty trained, I was taught to flush, wave and say, "See you at Tuscaloosa."" "Hey, you boys working for the government?" "Cleaning a clean room?" "We're still finding mud from the last kick." "Over 5,000 PSI." " Grab a mop!" " Whoo!" "That's just crazy." "Look what the pressure did to this drill string during the kick." " That's one for the trophy case." " (Gordon) True dat." "Hey, Patrick said you got somethin' for me." "Yes, sir." "Before y'all took off last time, shaker four goes down." "After some poking' and prodding'," "I finally found the source of the problem." "Check this out." "I been hidin' this for you since your last hitch." "(Mike) Is that a tooth?" " Oh, buddy!"

"Hey, fellas, I'm tellin' ya, it's gonna be a full-on shit storm once Mr..." " They sent them home." " Yeah." " Walk with me, Mike." " Where we headed?" "To murder some BP company men." " Shit, I got hammer, screwdriver." " Excellent." "(mouthing)" "Say, Mike, did you brush your teeth this morning?" "Ah, yes, sir." "Boy, did you floss?" "Uh, no." "No, why?" "Save ya a lotta pain and money in the long run, I'll tell ya." " Shit." " Jimmy's..." "Oh, he's about to go off on the BP guys." " They never ran that cement log." " They didn't run nothin'." "They sent 'em home without doin' shit, now we goin' after BP." "Hey!" "What's the matter?" "What, ya owe 'em a lotta money?" "Come on, Mike, stay on my hip." " Shit!" " Get 'em." "Yeah, baby." "(Kaluza) Don, look at line 51." "Your ceiling cost variances." " I'm not showing 51." " (door opens)" "Well, if it isn't Don Vidrine and Bob Kaluza." " Welcome back, Mr. Jimmy." " Oh, yeah." "So, we got all 500 feet of cement poured, huh?" "Yep." "(Jimmy) That cement's the only thing between us and a blowout." " And it's cured?" " Yes." "Had enough time, huh?" "Takes time to do it right." "I mean, if that cement job is compromised then everything above it is too." "Well, it's not compromised." "Houston doesn't have a problem." "So I assume Schlumberger guys said the same?" "Cement bond log they ran said the same, yeah?" "We are confident in the integrity of our cement job, are we not?" "Oh, we quite comfortable with the integrity of that cement, that for true." "(chuckles) You guys are just like my granddad." "Pardon?" "Well, you see, my granddaddy, he, uh, he never even went to the dentist 'cause he didn't wanna know all what was wrong 'cause then he'd have to deal with it." "You don't wanna know if that cement job on this well is shit 'cause you're 43 days and $50 million over budget." "You really should include yourself in that, Mr. Jimmy." "BP picked this spot to drill, Bob." "Consequences of that's on you guys." "'Course, I gotta try to deal with those consequences, so yeah, I'm included." "The point is, you sent the testing team home before they could do their job, maybe give y'all some news y'all didn't wanna hear." "What would it have cost you to run that test, huh?" "125 grand?" "You're a $180 billion company and you're cheap." "That's why we a $186 billion company." " We worry about those bills." " I worry about my rig." "My crew lives on it." "You just rent it." "Don, you and I both know we need some downtime for maintenance." "Mike, how many of our machines need repair?" " Uh, 390, Mr. Jimmy." " Three hundred and ninety?" "Yes, sir." "Almost ten percent of all the machinery aboard." "Name a few for me." " A few?" " Mmm." "I would love to hear exactly what piece of mission critical equipment are down." "Shit, where do I start?" ""A" drilling chair." "Process Station 18." "BOP control pods." "Telephone system." "Pipe-racking system." "GPS antenna." "Direct TV system." "Wireless Internet." "Iron roughneck." "Top drive rack back system." "Auxiliary draw-works control." "Salt water service pumps." "Smoke alarms in the galley." "And the reason why you're sweatin' so hard is 'cause the compressor for the AC on this deck are down, too." "Everything but the toilets, huh?" "No, no, you got problems there, too, but I don't do shitters." "That's Engineering." "Who are you?" "Mike Williams, chief ET." "(Jimmy) I'ma tell you like I told your executives on the chopper ride in." "And how 'bout the timing of that visit?" "We gonna properly secure this well before a production platform come in right after us and starts pumpin' oil." "Unfortunately, to do it properly takes time." "43 days?" "44 days?" "Keep counting', Bob." "45 days?" "46 days?" " Have a cookie, Bob." " Oh." "Can't run a cement log." "I'll tell you what we gonna do now." "We gonna run the negative pressure test, before we do anything else." "If you really think we need to." "I really think we need one, Bob, and so should you." "Especially since we got no idea whether this well is stable or not." "Hey!" "Dial tone!" "Day's lookin' up." "Mr. Anderson, it's Mr. Jimmy." "We gonna run a negative pressure test." "Start trippin' out 3,000 feet of pipe." "Thank you." "(indistinct announcements on PA)" "Uh, young man, pardon me." "Can you tell me where I could find a Mr. Mike Williams?" "Yes, sir." "He's in the ET shop on the second deck by the coffee shop." " Thank you much." " Have a wonderful day, sir." "And you, sir." "Mr. Williams?" " Mr. Vidrine, are you lost?" " (door shuts)" "Not at all." "Just was lookin' to come by and visit with ya for a minute." "Well, how can I help you?" "Seems as though you had something more you wanted to say in there." "And I thought I'd give you the time to say it." " Okay, so..." "This rig is broke?" " I didn't say that." "Sounded like you did." "Is there a reason you're in my shop, Mr. Vidrine?" "We a big company, Mike, BP." "A very big far-reaching, complex organization." "Lot of movin' parts." "Millions of movin' parts." "Thousands upon thousands of people." "And we all work very hard to ensure that all those people and all those moving' parts are functioning' properly as a means to an end." "A very profitable end for all of us." "So they the big picture." "They the little picture, like you and the malfunctioning' shitters." "But you see, in point of fact, they all kind of interconnected." "They a flow at work here, Mike." "So if you off, it's off." "Then I'm off." "Then we off." "Then the whole damn train is off." " You feel me, Mr. Williams?" " You on medication, Mr. Vidrine?" "I am merely trying' to assess just how close this train is hugging' the tracks." "Okay." "I hear ya." "You want my take?" "I mean, you really want my take?" " I do." " Okay." "I think you all tryin' to run out of fuel as the wheels touch down." "Runnin' out of gasoline as the plane lands is not smart." "It's flawed thinking." "It's hope as a tactic." "Duly noted." "And much appreciated, sir." "Just the opinion of the little guy." "(Vidrine) That a catfish?" "Yep. 65 pounds." "What y'all call that?" "Nibblin'?" "Noodlin'." "We noodle for catfish." "And you know, it's funny, 'cause when we go noodling', my best friend Peanut and I, we go down there with a fifth of Crown and a lake." "Walk down the boat ramp."

"Got that sledge, Hollywood?" "All right, we're in." "(automated voice) On station." "Locked." "(Andrea) Locked at 1-7-6, Captain." "We came right ten degrees." "We locked in."

"That's a lot of pressure." "Yeah." "Enough to cut your car in half." "(Jason) Opening the upper annular." "Hollywood, open up the drill pipe valve." "We gotta bleed pressure." "Gentlemen, I hate to say this, but that is a bad test." " Not necessarily." " Oh, Don." "A good test starts..." "Starts at zero." "Stays at zero." "Ends at zero." " Thank you." " So there was pressure." "But there was no mud flowing up and outta that pipe." "Now explain that to me." "That's a confusing result, I'll give you that." "Kaluza and I have talked about this drill pipe, until we blue in the face." "There's something off with it." "He says it's a bladder effect." "Bladder effect?" "Bladder effect." "He said Jason would know what he's talking about." "(Jimmy) That one's set at no indication of flow, right?" " Correct." " Looky here." "(Jason) Hey!" "We actually needed that." "Bladder effect." "It is a pocket of pressure, trapped around the annular, which reads like drill pressure because it is trapped right there." "It is sitting right there on the sensor." "If this was a legitimate pressure issue, then we would have mud flowing right back up and out of that drill pipe right there." "Now, how we gonna test this?" "We gonna run that negative pressure test again." "But we gonna run it on the kill line." "Not on the drill pipe." "Obviously, our problem is with that drill pipe." "You cannot have 1,395 pounds of pressure per square inch, enough to cut your car in half, and not have any fluid being forced up and outta that pipe by that pressure." "Boys, you got a whole mess of drilling mud on your boots out there?" "No?" "Hey, Don." "(arguing inaudibly)" "Gotten hot in the drill shack." "We have a problem with that drill pipe or with the sensor giving us a false reading." "Or any other of 1,000 moving parts down there." "Now, the way we gonna find out is run that negative pressure test on the kill line." "And if they zero pressure, Mr. Jimmy, then that gonna tell us all we need to know." "Are we in agreement?" "I don't know about agreement, but never hurts to run a test." "Lovely." "How we doing in here, Mr. Jimmy?" "Oh, we doing great." "Aren't we, Don?" "Yes, we are." "BP's well." "It is." "(Jimmy) BP's oil." "Indeed." "And we just the help y'all hire to drill a hole." "You are correct, Mr. Jimmy." "But we 50 days late." "And the hole ain't drilled." "Now, Mr. Jimmy, we have a issue in the galley." " What?" " Yeah, a whole buncha people." "It's a safety issue." "Yeah, won't take but a minute." "It's 43 days behind." "Not 50." "Simple mathematics." "Original completion date was March 8th." "It's April 20th today. 43 days." "Yup." "Think you money-hungry sons of bitches at least be good at math." "All right, gentlemen." "Go ahead, Dewey." "Negative pressure test on the kill line." "(Dewey) Switching to kill line test." "(automated voice) Initiating kill line pressure test." "(Jimmy) Bladder effect." "That ring true to you?" "Well, nothing ever come outta Don Vidrine's mouth ever really rang true to me, but, yeah, I mean..." "On its face?" "Yeah." "There's a logic to it." "It's got merit, but..."

"We still got 1,400 PSI on the drill line." "Drill line and the kill line should be exactly the same." "They should be all lined up." "(Kaluza) We already agreed that there's something wrong with the drill line." "So why do you keep comin' back to it?" "I don't know." "Good oil field practice?" "No mud." "No flow." "We got to go." "Now, how quick can we lock the door on this well?" "I'm not doin' nothin' until Mr. Jimmy's made aware." "Is there a man among you?" "Is there an adult here?" "(scoffs)" "You all got the paraphernalia." "The dip." "The steel toes." "But it's all bullshit." "We got zero pressure on the kill line." "You nervous as cats."

"That's the only thing I'm sure of." "(sighs)" "These guys are all over me." "What do you wanna do?" " Zero flow, correct?" " That's correct." "No flow." "We good?" "Well, looks like it's gonna be a long night." "You stay on top of it, Jason." "I'll see you in about a half hour." "Thanks." "(over speakers) Okay, guys, good test." "Yahoo."
