Combined Gulf Oil Spill Leaking 100,000 Barrels Per Day

Scientist testimony to congress reveals that the combined Gulf Oil Spill leakage is about 100,000 barrels per day.
Some of the most chilling testimony came from Steve Wereley, a professor of mechanical engineering at Purdue University. Based on the latest video that BP released, he told the committee that the two wellhead leaks combined to gush 95,000 barrels a day into the Gulf of Mexico, with 70,000 barrels from the largest leak and 25,000 from the smaller.
Wereley also said his estimate could be wrong by plus or minus 20% – so the daily rate of leakage would be between 76,000 and 104,000 barrels a day. He told the committee: “The media keeps using the 5,000 barrel a day estimate, but there is scientifically no chance… BP’s estimate is nowhere near correct. It is certainly larger.” He later said: “I don’t see any possibility, any scenario under which their number is accurate.”
Meanwhile, a Fox news Flyover of the Gulf oil spill reveals that the Loop Current the loop current has spread the slick hundreds of miles further in just the past few days.
BP said it is now siphoning about 3,000 barrels a day of oil, out of what the company estimated was a 5,000 barrels a day gusher. But video footage of the BP siphon device shows that the amount being siphoned isn’t even putting a dent into the amount of oil spewing from the main leak. That amount doesn’t even consider the second leak.
Compare the footage yourself.

Second leak, which Steve Wereley estimates is leaking and additional 25,000 barrels per day
