XSL360B deep well drilling rig adopts full hydraulic control, top drive and crawler travel. With reasonable overall layout, it has high drilling efficiency, is suitable for air or mud drilling technology, and is widely used in water well, geothermal and micro pile drilling projects.
[pdf] Deepwater Horizon was an ultra-deepwater, dynamically positioned, semi-submersible offshore drilling rig owned by Transocean and operated by the BP company. On 20 April 2010, while drilling in the Gulf of Mexico at the Macondo Prospect, a blowout caused an explosion on the rig that killed 11 crewmen and ignited a fireball visible from 40 miles (64 km) away. The fire was inextinguisha.

Deepwater drilling, or deep well drilling, is the process of creating holes in the using a for under. .
Using sonic equipment, oil companies determine the drilling sites most likely to produce oil. Then they use a mobile offshore drilling unit (MODU) to dig the initial well. Some units are converted into production rigs, meaning they switch from drilling for oil to capturing oil once it's found.Types of deepwater drilling facilitiesDrilling in deep waters can be performed by two main types of mobile deepwater drilling rigs: drilling rigs and . Drilling can also be performed from a fixed-position installation such as a fixed platfor. .
On 20 April 2010, a deepwater oil rig () exploded, killing 11 and releasing 750,000 cubic meters (200 million gallons) of oil into the Gulf of Mexico. With those numbers, many scientists c. .
