Abstract
A technique for controlling an oilwell fire is provided which utilizes boxes (10, 40, 60) formed of autoclave cellular concrete. This material is sufficiently heat resistant to survive the temperatures of a burning oilwell and provide the possibility of extinguishing the fire and creating a mechanism to put the oilwell back into production with relative ease.
