Idea for the BP oil disaster

I have an idea for the BP oil disaster but BP has not sent me the forms they said they would when I called them... My idea is to float a large old metal ship which has had its deck cut out (save the support structures) out to the broken pipe, capsize it and sink it over the site. the oil should collect inside the upside down ship, like a bell jar, since the oil is lighter than water. Drill holes and attach pipes to the apex of the upside down ship and pump out the oil that has gathered there. I drew a quick diagram of what I mean. I hope you can tell what's going on despite the quality... what do you think? Any one know how to get this put into motion?
