Oil Flow From Gulf of Mexico Blowout

Has anyone calculated the possible ranges of oil flow based on diameter of pipe and pressures?

I tried to use one of the calculators and I am simply too unfamiliar with the theory and units of measure to use them properly.

Seems like this would be a straight forward calculation.
