Maybe all the talk about capping the well was before the blow out happend, when they found out the BOP failed. But as you said before it would be nice if they did release a wellbore diagram. Then it would be way more obvious if the casing would hold if they did manage to cap it. Although they should already know that based on the weight of the fluid and the equivilate circulating density to hold back the formation.

The way that it is sounding that this well is going to be flowing until they get the relief well drilled, which is a few months down the road.
Which is a complete and utter monumental disaster and will probably make this the largest oil spill in history.
