BP Stops Oil Leak With New Pipe Cap

Click to read full story from Fox News

NEW ORLEANS -- BP said its capped-off well appeared to be holding steady Friday morning, almost midway into a white-knuckle waiting period in which engineers watched the pressure gauges for signs of a leak.

Results monitored from control rooms on ships at sea and hundreds of miles away at the company's U.S. headquarters in Houston showed the oil staying inside the cap, rather than escaping through any undiscovered breaches, BP PLC vice president Kent Wells said on a conference call.

JMC Ministries Response

We are now at day 88 of the oil spill. Our prayers are that this cap holds and that no more oil is spilling into the Gulf of Mexico. But what is done is done, and the devastation of the oil spill is going to take longer to clean up the oil than it did to get this cap on the pipe to stop the oil.

Our prayers go out to those being effected by the Oil Spill in Gulf as they face the months and even years of clean up and effects from the oil spill.
