What happened is someone left the interior light on over-night and the battery died so the emergency shut-off valve didn't work.
In all serious, they do think the battery died for the fail-safe. Their plan is to bring the pipe up near the surface, then put a cap on it.
In all the technology why have we not made a robot yet that could just go down their and squeeze the pipe shut at least just to slow the oil flow. In the video that thing was "raging" methane and oil.
