Oklahoma firm readies for Iraqi oil well fires risk
Elk City based Cudd Pressure Control officials say they could deploy crews to Iraq to fight oil well fires if Saddam Hussein torches fields again. They join Wild Well Control and Boots & Coots, who also warn of tough terrain, deep explosions, and hydrogen sulfide hazards. Iraq may hold 1,500 to 2,500 wells with higher output potential than Kuwait, adding to the danger and scale of any firefighting effort.
