As the stroy sadi they do not know exactly why the pressure is lower than expected. If they thought that there was even a poosiblity of that blowout tehy would be piping oil to the surface now but they aren't to releave pressure.There is alwasy high risk and things to deal with i such copmplicated operation as drilling that deep like anything else.
