Reply #103: Sure but you could do the same thing a lot easier by punching 20 holes in the pipe.

Not sure what you think that will do.

The flow rate will reduce but the static pressure will remain the same no matter how many leak or how spread out the leak is.
Any momentary drop in pressure wouldn't be materially useful.

Remember 100,000 psi is about 100x the pressure of nuclear reactor cooling loop. :(

The simplest way to understand pressure is it exists uniformly in any system (well real world is sometimes more complex but lets simplify it).
So the oil still in the oil field is under 100K psi. The oil in the well is under 100K psi. The oil in the pipe is under 100K psi. The oil at the hole of the pipe is at 100K psi. This is why no matter how many holes you make or how much streams you divert it into the pressure at any point will still be 100K psi.
