I'd say it's about 30-40 k ba/ day now, this happened after they cut that pipe ! They are collecting around 11000 b now and they can't keep up ! And oil still gushing bad

Where are you seeing 30-40, just looked at the link and didn't see that. With no restriction there is a good chance that the reservoir will sand itself in, question is when.

Actually, I agree with you....about 30k.
But if you are BP, why not lower the estimate for royalties sake?
Now, with the pipe cut, they can up the estimate and date it to the cut pipe, rather than the whole time.
Just my guess, but I think we are already around 4 times the Valdez quantity, then.
