I Am the First Woman to be a Roustabout "Foreman" in the History of American Oil & Gas Oil Fields & wrote about by the American Oil & Gas Historical Society. That video…is why I NEVER would take a job on a rig. When something blows in the oil fields I want ground under my feet & I don't want to be around anything that can come crashing down on top of Me. Endured enough of that while rebuilding a large segment for Phillips 66 Refinery who suffered an enormous section that blew out in Jan. 1980. I worked for Fish Engineering & Construction when I was 18yrs of age….in 2yrs I was an Industrial Electrician….also pipe & iron welder. We went thru several small explosions….not something I ever want to experience again. great video best watched on mute tho
me: Ugh who is this guy I just want to see explosions Edwin Drake bit "As long as we've been drilling for oil, we've been blowing shit up" ….ok I'm here
Watched a long video on all the wellheads on fire in the Gulf back in the day and the guys who had to go put them all out. Now that…was some craziness. Makes this stuff look tame by comparison.
A lot to talk about here. From my experience these things happen from complacency, inexperienced people and the operator not willing to spend money to do things right. Usually it takes a few rigs to burn down in a field before they wake up and start spending the money.
i worked on a drilling rig in east texas , we had a blowout . the blowout was so intense it blew 8400 feet of drill pipe out in a long noodle , it went thru the crown and scooted across the location out into a field . it blew out the bop's and destroyed the block and elevators . lucky for us there was no fire . the gas and mud pressure was so terrific it cut the derrick into two pieces . it took red addairs team and boots and coots team 3 weeks to get it under control and capped . zero deaths , one floor hand twisted his ankle jumping off the floor to the ground . we all ran to the highway 2 miles away , including robbie with his ankle .
It feels like you have drilled into the the bowels of hell It is a life changing event Run and jump down the stairs and across location without time to look back
If this doesn't put the fear of God in your eyes and question your mortality than nothing will, come from an oilfield family, do my best to respect and revere this industry. All of you in the patch that have seen/been through the shit remind the uppers with this video why you don't cut corners and try to save a buck. Be safe Men π
Damn I miss drilling sometimes, then Iβll watch a video like this and Iβm reminded of how dangerous that shit was. Best job Iβve ever had πͺπΎπ«‘
I was working on Suits Rig Corp rig #9 in the Anadarko Basin in W Oklahoma in early 1980's. We listened on the radio in the dog house for calls of mayday. We could see the flames, as the rig was only about a mile away. Back then, you could count 10-15 rigs from the floor. I was working derricks at the time, so I saw the disaster from the board… The derrick finally fell over, luckily, no one was hurt… Man those were fun days, but dangerous…

If you get bored watch muddyfeet concrete pumping. Wow!
In all these videos, have the BOP's failed to work?? Thought they have 3 layers of sealing mechanisms or is that just the deep sea rigs?
Funny how everybody is taking the credit for drilling the first ever well. The Azeri are stating this too.

Music bad.
ΩΩΨ³Ω π
Had to stop because of the Music
I love music but my opinion is the song doesn't fit the video. I couldn't watch the rest of the video. Ive seen way to many fires in the oil patch
Nice video crap music.
I capped that well in Utah in 2013 it was for Devon energy in Roosevelt Utah frontier drilling.

Been on half a dozen up in Peace Area over the years. Pretty Awesome sights.
Nice soundtrack.
I'm good on the Fracing side. Hats off to drillers
Shorter intro, no music. Let the industrial sounds come thru mate
that audio is shocking………………pure shit.
This has been a huge eye opener for me so I really appreciate you putting this together, yβall rig workers have seen some shit
our content is the same
The guy at 5:52 I'll bet is no longer with us. That's brutal
1.52 iron roughneck paid for itself
This is how catastrophic Blowouts can be. Please Learn A Lesson From This.

And they say electric cars are dangerous due to the risk of fire. Ha!
Annoying music & intro.
me: Ugh who is this guy I just want to see explosions
Edwin Drake bit
"As long as we've been drilling for oil, we've been blowing shit up"
….ok I'm here
Is the soundtrack of this video called NOISE?! I have a damn headache!

Loud Crappy Noise Ruins Nice Video
This looks like a lot of work for me to come out in a vac truck and clean it all up
work with high risk
That ficking music ruined this video
Ok… Tarantino…. what's with the shitty music??
@ 5:52 do you know if it killed that guy?
Bad editing and music and quality…since I can't dislike.

The the rigs are a lot of fun to work on
It feels like you have drilled into the the bowels of hell
It is a life changing event
Run and jump down the stairs and across location without time to look back
I've had nothing to do with rigs whatsoever, I love danger and done some freaky shit on dozers, diggers etc but this is out there. Respect
pretty awesome thanks
Totally not me hearing the USCSB narrator with each and every fireball, nope, not at all.
I wouldn't call that shit music.
