Bop Tilting

Since one of the unmanned robots knocked the cap of the BP oil well the bop has started to lean.BP are measuring a tilt in the 40-ton blowout preventer stack with a level and a device called an inclinometer.Oil industry expert Rob Cavner says that he wouldn't be surprised if the leaning and damaged BOP ended up falling over entirely. If this happens then everything down there is coming up.And there's nothing anybody can do to stop it.
