Well control in case of offshore blowout: oil collection on platforms. Final report
Technical Report
·
OSTI ID:6399890
It is concluded that oil coming from a blowout through a diverter in principle can be recovered, but this is complicated and dangerous and not worth consideration because once successfully diverted, the blowout will most likely not last more than hours or a few days. The report concludes that use of special oil catchers and of knockdown nozzles in the rig holds too little promise to be worth working with. Spill collection trays under the drill floor and/or the cellar deck are considered interesting, and further work under the Statoil Project is recommended, particularly for Condeeps.
