The quad well Hville blowout in Red River parish a few years ago was incredible.

As I understand it the flowback hads set a hard 90 on the heavy iron and when it washed out it cut all four wellheads off like a waterjet cutter.

This is EXACTLY like Deepwater Horizon except it's on land that's hundreds of miles away from the Gulf of Trump.

That explains the flow. It’s almost like diverters, and that was a little confusing.

What is a "Workover Rig" and what is that high pressure spray coming out of that rig?
Please explain for those of us who are not roughnecks or petroleum engineers.
Thank you
