| A well is said to be ´blowing out´ if the kick is not detected and the well begins to flow at an uncontrolled rate. |
|||
| An uncontrolled influx of formation fluid which has sufficient pressure to cause damage to rig equipment and injury to rig personnel. It can be caused by drilling into an unexpected, abnormally high-pressure reservoir in the subsurface. |

| A blowout does not take place suddenly but develops gradually as the hydrostatic pressure of the drilling mud drops below the level required to contain formation fluids. |
