Abstract
An underground blowout occurs when formation fluids flow from one subsurface zone to another in an<br>uncontrolled manner. The results range from being indiscernible to catastrophic. An underground<br>blowout can result in minor transfers of fluids that may never be identified or in flow which reaches the<br>sea floor or ground surface.
