Yeah a friend of mine who has fairly significant investments in domestic small wells called me last night on this topic. He said it is approximately 16 miles of pipeline. There is no word on the accessibility of the segments that need repair. If the accessibility is tough that could prolong the repair time significantly.

Of course BP actually has 3 pipelines up there and the other 2 are undergoing repairs right now… Well imagine that!

Let’s keep our fingers crossed for calm weather in the gulf as having a hurricane roll through there would not help oil prices…
