Definitions

  • the present invention provides a method of successfully fighting burning oil wells employing liquid nitrogen and to the use of a remotely operated vehicle for carrying out the method.
  • a method of fire fighting burning oil wells by dispensing liquid nitrogen to the burning site to prevent or inhibit oxygen from fuelling the flames.
  • the liquid nitrogen is dispersed around the well head in a plurality of spaced apart jets.
  • the fire- fighting operation is controlled by use of a remotely operated vehicle.
  • a remotely operated vehicle provided with a source of liquid nitrogen and an articulated deployment boom capable of supplying the liquid nitrogen to the site of a burning oil well.
  • the liquid nitrogen supply means comprises a supply line linked with a ring of discharge ports for the liquid nitrogen adapted to surround the well head under treatment.
  • a discharge line may be provided to return unused nitrogen from the well head.
  • the vehicle includes an electrohydraulic power pack mounted on the vehicle and provided with a water jacket to enable continual cooling of the motor to take place.
  • the vehicle is a vehicle driven by an endless track.
  • the vehicle may include one or more of the following: a remote control console situated at the control centre; a multi ⁇ directional hydraulic powered water cannon with a viewing camera; a multi-directional powered water cannon with diffuser branch nozzle and viewing camera; an anti ⁇ personnel mine detonation spoiler; a high resolution colour camera in a continuous flush water jacket mounted at the end of the articulated boom and a torque tool mounted at the end of the boom.
  • a remote control console is shown at 1, this being situated in the control centre at a safe distance from the well head 15.
  • a permeable fire hose surrounding electro/hydraulic umbilical is shown at 2, and 3 shows an intrinsically safe hydraulic power pack in a continuous flush water jacket. Mounted on a tracked vehicle 13
  • SUBSTITUTESHEET with endless track 14 are a multi-directional hydraulic powered water cannon 4 with viewing camera and a multi ⁇ directional hydraulic powered water cannon 6 with diffuser branch nozzle and viewing camera.
  • An anti ⁇ personnel mine detonation spoiler is shown at 5.
  • a liquid nitrogen supply line is shown at 7, the liquid nitrogen being fed to a nitrogen discharge ring 8 with an array of discharge ports 9 for distributing the nitrogen; a discharge line 10 is provided for supplying additional liquid nitrogen or other fire-fighting medium to the well head 15 if such is required.
  • a deployment boom 11 is mounted on the vehicle 13, and mounted on the boom is a high resolution colour camera 12 in a continuous flush water jacket.
  • Oil well valves are shown at 16, 17 and 18, and 19 shows the flames of the burning oil well. 20 denotes a torque tool at the end of the boom 10.

Abstract

Un procédé de lutte contre les incendies de puits de pétrole consiste à répandre de l'azote liquide sur le lieu de l'incendie afin d'empêcher que l'oxygène n'alimente les flammes. On effectue ce procédé en utilisant un véhicule commandé à distance et pourvu d'une source (7) d'approvisionnement en azote liquide ainsi que d'une flèche articulée (11), pouvant se déployer et répandre l'azote liquide sur le lieu (15) de l'incendie d'un puits de pétrole.
