Abstract

A method of putting out fires under pressure is disclosed, in particular fires of oil wells, which method is based upon the use of an apparatus having a suitable geometry and containing a composition or a mixture of liquefied extinguishing and/or inert compositions, which apparatus is placed at a distance from the hole of the burning oil well and collapses because of the internal pressure so that pressure vapours burst out and hit at once and homogeneously the whole front of the fire so as to put fire out. <IMAGE>
