Reuters: Natural gas from a well being drilled by Apache Corporation in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico has flowed underground, leading U.S. regulators to order the company to prepare to drill a relief well to control the flow if necessary, the U.S. Bureau of Safety and Environmental Enforcement said. Apache shut in the well on February 5 after it had a "kick" upon encountering a zone of "abnormally pressured" natural gas while drilling, the company said in a statement on its website.

Mercury News: A group of six UC Santa Cruz researchers is making its way back from Antarctica after nearly three months of work in the frozen wilderness. The scientists and engineers were part of a crew of 50 that drilled through a half mile of ice to explore a lake hidden under the West Antarctic Ice Sheet. The project, called Whillans Ice Stream Subglacial Access Research Drilling -- or WISSARD, includes nine collaborating institutions from across the U.S. The UCSC team focused on how the flow of water...
