Looks to me like it would be about the same if you broke off one of your house water pipes and then tried to stop that flow by shoving a drinking straw down the leaking pipe !!
What am I missing here??
Is there a further, larger plan this is just a preliminary step to doing ??

As of tonight, Monday, the new pipe is capturing about 3% of the leaking oil.
Who could have seen that coming ?????
