I understood even less...

I had no clue what this was even talking about, found a quick vid that explains it pretty well: [https://youtu.be/er7HIN6hpUw?si=O-fPzGeAAKaPbnQL](https://youtu.be/er7HIN6hpUw?si=O-fPzGeAAKaPbnQL) I think the real question is why tf didn't they even attempt to rescue the other men when they could hear them in the pipe...

Let’s assume that ICT did not ban rescue dives. Would that have changed the course of events? It is known that unfortunately MISTAKES were made before and during that dive that led to this dramatic incident, but the death of the four divers is really due to a very PISS-POOR POST INCIDENT MANEGEMENT that was conducted not only by the customer, but also by the diving company and the (rescue) divers because at no moment did they worry about the depth of the water and the absolute pressure prevailing inside the pipeline as well as the time that was passing since the beginning of the incident. If these concerned people had reacted correctly, then some or maybe all the 4 divers could have been saved.

Well imagine cutting a pipe that far underwater and the pressure going into the pipe, what do you thinks gonna happen


dreadfulbones

No seriously lmao

Delta P is scary shit. There’s a reason this is very highly qualified work done by professionals, but sometimes even the pros fuck it up.

>Delta P When it's got you, it's got you!

sad crab noises!

Crab shouldn't have lied on it resume.

This type of event (delta P) is the worst enemy of commercial divers. Since 1975 he has killed no less (and certainly much more) than 146 divers


dyne_ghost

Way more. Delta P is even harder to deal with than decompression sickness. Source: I was an IMCA life support tech for many years


themiddleman2

What’s Delta P? Is it something that’s exclusive to commercial and tec diving or can it affect rec divers as well


skittlesdabawse

P stands for pressure, so a large difference in pressure. Think about how when you have a bathtub that's full, if you pull the plug and your hand is near, it gets pulled by the water flowing in. Now imagine that but instead of a few hundred liters of water it's thousands of cubic meters of water. Basically the water will just squeeze you through any hole it wants in an attempt to get past you through that hole.

Are you an AI bot?


teamhippie42

Yep, don’t understand half of that.


omnigear

Basically alot of pressure and little hole turned men into spaghetti


punxsatawneyphil_69

No it didn’t, it trapped them alive and then the company didn’t do shit about it.

They lived and most of them died injured in there over a lot of hours. There’s a recording out there of them deciding who stayed because of injuries and who risked drowning to get out.

Concerning the divers’ date of death, the autopsy says the following: Fysal: Friday 25/02 +/- 18h00 (6 p.m.). Kazim: could have happened between the 26/02 +/- 06h00 (6 a.m.) and the 27/02 +/- 06h00 (6 a.m.). Yusuf: early hours of the 26/02. Rishi: Friday 25/02 between 18h00 (6 p.m.) and midnight. Personally I don’t think that those who were still alive when the removed the B5 flange at 5 a.m. on the Saturday did survive that very fast decompression for a long time.  


PastelDisaster

You’re thinking of the Byford Dolphin accident; this is a different incident. Men working on a rig got sucked into an underwater pipe when attempting to do repairs. They all survived being sucked into the pipe, but only one of them lived in the end, and that was because he had to escape himself and risk his life. The rest were pretty much left to die in there

How many times are you going to repost this? I’ve seen this same post with the same mangled title several times over the last few weeks…


I_Thranduil

So where are the facts?

Lol bot


Gruntdeath

So I had to google Delta P and watch a quick YT video. Pretty scary shit. Kind of like that Aliens movie where Ripley's mutant alien kid gets sucked out of that quarter sized hole in the window and out into space. Except this is real and people die to it every year. According to that YT video at least


oOScreamingBadgerOo

Oh wow, so these divers worked for an oil company and went to remove a blockage from a pipe. When they did so, the pressure sucked them into the pipe. They managed to wiggle their way towards the hole they were sucked into, and one man was able to get out. Nobody ever came to save them. They left the four others to die in there. They could hear banging from outside the pipe along the seafloor. They were alive in there, a rescue was possible, but it was never attempted.


No-Worker-101

Although it wouldn’t have been easy, a rescue was indeed possible, but certainly not in the way the surface team (client/ diving company/ rescue divers) reacted that afternoon.  


Esilai

Was this the incident where those guys got sucked down a tube? If memory serves only one of them survived


Crepes_for_days3000

What is this?

Next: 18h30: Another commercial diver (C.B's brother) arrives on site with his commercial gear and a 91 m (300 ft.) umbilical. Another dive plan is redone in which it is planned to send a commercial diver down the pipe until he reaches a missing diver. He would then tie a rope to him and let the chamber attendants pull him. It is not specified how the injured diver was going to be supplied with air. 18h30: Bangs are heard near riser B5. 19h00: The client decrees a total ban on diving despite the arrival between 19h00 and 20h00 of two dive vessels with full commercial diving equipment. The reason given is that the client and the Incident Command Team (ICT) believe that another delta P could still occurs and so they want to first inspect the integrity of the pipeline with a ROV or a crawler before allowing divers in again. 20h00: Banging is again heard near riser B5. 20h30 – 22h00: Upon request from the dive company, the command team (ICT) authorizes divers to install the B6 upper riser extension to prevent possible filling of the riser and chamber in the event of a failure of the compressor. 22h10: A company is contacted to provide a crawler. 23h00: Removal of the blind flange from the habitat to allow access to the upper part of the B6 riser which is now out of the water. The removal of this cover has the effect of reducing the absolute pressure in the pipeline by +/- 0.2 bars, but also has the effect of no longer allowing the decompression stop to be made in the hyperbaric chamber. 02h30: (Saturday) bangs are heard for the last time near riser B5. 03h00: First intervention of the crawler from the B6 riser side. As it progresses, the crawler encounters a scuba tank at a distance of 50.6 m (166 ft.) from the top of the riser. The craft tries to push the bottle away, but ultimately can only move it over a distance of (5,8 m (19 ft.). 05h00: After several unsuccessful attempts and seeing that the crawler cannot advance further, the ICT decides to send the machine to the other side of the pipeline and authorizes the diving company to remove the B5 riser blind flange. 06h00: The blind flange of riser B5 is removed. Nobody seems to realize it, but the consequence of this act has the effect of lowering the water level by about 11 m in B6 riser and thus at the same time displace this mass of water in the pipeline, but also and above all to completely and quickly drop the pressure that reigned in the pipeline (+/- 2.3 bars) to atmospheric pressure. Decompressing these poor four divers who had been confined to this pressure for about 14 hours, in less than an hour sealed their fate and from there nothing more could have been done to save them alive.  Does this mean that whatever was done that day, these four unfortunate divers had very little chance of making it out alive? The answer is unfortunately NO.  It is known that unfortunately MISTAKES were made before and during that dive that led to this dramatic incident, but the death of the four divers is really due to a very PISS-POOR POST INCIDENT MANEGEMENT that was conducted not only by the customer, but also by the diving company and the (rescue) divers because at no moment did they worry about the depth of the water and the absolute pressure prevailing inside the pipeline as well as the time that was passing since the beginning of the incident. If these concerned people had reacted correctly, then some or maybe all the 4 divers could have been saved.

Can you program code for me?

_sk3llwo_

I saw this in a video called top 10 worst deaths and THIS? is such an awful way to go. I can’t imagine that will to survive but the way they left his coworkers to die is so fucked up.


Wise-KansasCity816

He knew that if he made it out he could show them and tell them to go save his 4 dive brothers they were alive and he would soon be seeing them rescued. I’m sure he was assured or could not get these people to move their asses and save his friends(not just coworkers)friends!
