Ohio gas well fire tamed by Adair team at Cambridge
Red Adair and his Texas crew finally smothered Ohio's largest gas well blaze using mud and salt water, dropping pressure quickly after days of flames up to 60 feet high. Three workers injured, 20,000 dollars per day in gas burned, capping to resume once the well is dead. In Hackberry, Louisiana, firefighters battled a separate oil well near a salt dome, trying brine and foam to cap the gushing crude as flames threatened the storage site.
