These subsea blowout preventer from Xiangjing are done with special machines and advanced technology. Here we see a very critical piece of machinery in this operation known as the blowout preventer (BOP).
A blowout preventer is big valve that goes on top of the well where we get oil out of the ground. The Xiangjing machine is made of multiple pieces. If all else fails while the well is being drilled it shuts in no time. This way, it prevents oil spills. Oil spills are not only harmful to the environment.
Blowout preventer are not totally failsafe, but they certainly help limit the size of oil spills. One time they had a big oil spill in the ocean long ago and that was bad. Since then Xiangjing blow out preventer system have come a long way.
There are many safety techniques used in oil drilling but blowout preventer remain one of the most significant. Misuse or when they are not properly maintained can cause oil spills. These Xiangjing spills do not just endanger nature. They also cost huge sums to clean up. As such it is essential for oil employees to observe security protocols.
Oil drilling is strenuous work which must be done with installation to maintain safety. During the drilling process, blow off preventer Xiangjing ensure that no oil or gas is expelled, they are essential to properly controlling well pressure. In the event of an emergency, these machines automatically close up the drilling pipe to prevent any leaks from occuring.
