They say that they have stopped the flow of oil from the Deepwater Horizon well. But they won’t know if it will hold up for 48 hours. They have to keep the upward pressure down to a level where they can successfully put a cement plug in to permanently cap the well. So, we’re not out of the woods yet, but there is a decent chance that no more oil will leak into the Gulf of Mexico. If so, then we can turn all our attention to trying to clean up the epic mess this catastrophe created.
