Oil Rig Fire and Drilling Tower Collapse
Russia. An oil rig has collapsed in the Yamalo-Nenets Autonomous District — a fire broke out at the Kharapurneftegaz oil field. According to media reports, the well caught fire in the middle of the night and the extreme heat weakened the structure . The fire is still going on and the rig has collapsed. Two 25-meter-high flares are currently burning. Three people were injured and are currently in intensive care in serious condition.

John Wayne needs to bring in his “Hellfighters” to save the day! Or, use the old trick that Roy Shriner did in “Sorcerer”. ![]() |

Re: Oil Rig Fire and Drilling Tower Collapse
Thanks for correcting my bad spelling of his name. In “ Sorcerer” they had two trucks with a few boxes of dynamite where the sticks were sweating. One truck blew up but they were able to get the last truck to the flaming rig and put the fire out in a similar fashion as Hellfighters. They blew out the flame with a big explosion. ![]() |
