What is Gas Well Control?

Gas Well Control - like Oil Well Control - is the management of the hazardous effects of unexpected high pressures on the surface equipment of drilling rigs when exploring and drilling for oil and/or natural gas. 

Drilling fluid is used when drilling a new oil/natural gas well and provides an amount of well control. 

Inadequate measures to provide for effective Gas Well Control - or - Oil Well Control, can result in an oil well blowout, and cause serious damage, injury, or death, as in the case of British Petroleum's (BP) Deepwater Horizon catastrophe which occurred on April 20, 2010.   BP's failure to maintain sufficient Oil Well Control on the drilling rig caused the oil well blowout which caused an explosion and fire and the deaths of 11 of the drilling rigs employees, and the worst environmental disaster of all time.  

Gas Well Control and Oil Well Control includes the monitoring of the well's pressures and the proper safe-operating procedures for operating the well site equipment - which can vary widely from well-to-well depending on "bottom hole reservoir pressures." 

What is a Gas Well Blowout?

 A gas well blowout is the uncontrolled release of natural gas from a natural gas well which occurs after pressure control systems (Blowout Preventers) have failed.

Before oil well pressure control devices were developed - starting in the 1920s, oil well blowouts were common, and referred to as; gushers, wild wells or just blowouts.
