Description
English: contextual overview of the Deepwater Horizon oil spill recovery area showing both sea surface and subsea. Scale has been distorted for clarity, and only the main equipment is shown.

At the centre is a subsea blowout preventer stack installed on the seabed with a riser insertion tube in place to its left and kill and choke lines connected to a top kill mud manifold to its right. Relief wells 1 and 2 are shown at the extreme right and left, each drilling down to meet the blown centre well. Legend:

  • red represents the blowout preventer stack
  • grey represents the oil flow passage
  • white tubing represents the kill (left) and choke (right) lines
  • brown represents the top of the subsea well casing
  • the five grey rectangles within the lower red shape represent ram-type blowout preventers
  • the two grey rectangles within the upper red shape represent annular-type blowout preventers
  • the orange pipes are flexible hoses connected to various rigid pipes
