Information
has glosseng: A blowout preventer (BOP) is a large valve that can seal off at the surface wellhead a well being drilled or worked over. During drilling or well interventions, the valve may be closed if overpressure from an underground zone causes formation fluids such as oil or natural gas to enter the wellbore and threaten the rig. By closing this valve (usually operated remotely via hydraulic actuators), the drilling crew can prevent explosive pressure release, thus regaining control of the downhole pressure. Once this is accomplished, often the drilling mud density within the hole can be increased until adequate fluid pressure is being placed on the influx zone, and the BOP can be opened for operations to resume. The invention and use of BOPs were instrumental in the end of oil gushers, which were dangerous and costly.

Norwegian
has glossnor: En utblåsingssikring eller utblåsingsventil (engelsk: blowout preventer, BOP) er en stor ventil som omslutter en oljebrønn på havoverflaten. Under boring eller brønnintervensjoner kan man lukke ventilen dersom overtrykk fra et sedimentlag danner formasjonsvæsker (ofte olje og gass) som skytes opp av trykket og truer installasjonen. Ved å lukke denne ventilen, som normalt opereres fjernstyrt via hydraulikksylindere, kan boremannskapet forhindre dette eksplosive trykket som kan føre til oljebranner, og slik få kontroll over trykket i reservoaret. Utblåsingssikringen fungerer som en andre sikring dersom boreslammet ikke stopper trykket.
