“(July 16) — When you’ve got a leak, you call a plumber. So perhaps it’s not surprising that a “mystery plumber” might be the person ultimately responsible for helping BP stop the massive oil leak 5,000 feet below the surface of the Gulf of Mexico.”
“According to a report from The Christian Science Monitor, six weeks ago, a plumber who did not reveal his identity contacted University of California, Berkeley, engineering professor Robert Bea with an idea for how to fix BP’s gushing Deepwater Horizon oil well. The man sent Bea a sketch, which impressed the professor so much that he forwarded it to the U.S. Coast Guard.”
