| Summary: | This project makes an innovative design of ball injection device for a well blowout response system. Blowout is an uncontrolled flow of gas, oil or other formation fluids into the atmosphere or another zone. If this flow of hydrocarbons is not stopped in time, the hydrocarbon can ignite into a deadly firestorm call blowout. Because of the immense cost and danger associated with oil well blowouts, the well control industry resolves around the prevention and avoidance of blowouts. Unfortunately, well blowout still occurred such as Montara gas well blowout in 2009, Macondo well blowout in 2010 and recently in 2013, a blowout in Gulf of Mexico. |
