Well blowout is an uncontrolled release of flowing fluids (e.g., gas, oil, water, and mud) from a well once pressure control systemssuch as BOP Stack are completely lost. This uncontrolled flow will end up with a well kick that increases in severity and may result in a blowout. The well control can only be recovered.

The gushers were oil wells where the oil and gas were under so much pressure; they sprang out when the well got drilled. We know how to handle gas and liquids under massive pressure. Also, oil producers have developed ways to extract as much oil and gas from a reservoir as possible even after the initial pressure subsides.
