Abstract

A device including a tank adapted to be arranged on a sea bottom having a filling opening is provided. The tank includes an inflatable bladder with an elongated shape, made from a flexible material, provided with the filling opening at one end and equipped with connecting members. At least one cable extends over at least the largest length of the bladder and is connected thereto by the connecting members. The present invention is applicable to the treatment of uncontrolled eruptions of offshore oil wells.
