The larger 'G' tower required far more effort and explosives than the British engineers had expected.
Having already completed 80 percent of the inspection and found the house to be very sound, the engineer expects no serious problems.
The engineers will study the rest of the system and expect to have complete results by January.
But there are hints of the havoc the engineers expect to find.
"The engineers expect they'll repair the breakdown well before then."
Gradually engineers will be able to propose more general goals and expect good solutions to appear as a matter of course.
Initially, engineers expected to recover only 10 percent of the field's oil.
But the engineers who designed and built those generators had expected more time to bring them on-line.
Last fall, one of the two primary insurance carriers for engineers said that structural engineers can expect to see their rates climb even higher.
Our engineers are studying the problem and expect a solution shortly.
