A tribute to the “Red Adair” “Boots” Hansen “Coots” Matthews Wild well Control team.
Also a tribute the cast and crew of the Movie “Hellfighters”
“Hellfighters is a 1968 American film starring John Wayne, Katharine Ross, Jim Hutton, Bruce Cabot, Jay C. Flippen and Vera Miles. The movie, directed by Andrew V. McLaglen, is about a group of oil well firefighters, based loosely on the life of Red Adair. Adair, "Boots" Hansen, and "Coots" Matthews, served as technical advisors on the film”.
In the opening scene they show a drilling rig tripping out of the hole just as it comes in. The B.O.P won't close and due to that the hands are trying to close it down manually but, one the guys hits the light and it breaks and caught the rig on fire.
This painting is base on that scene just as it happens. They only show part of the rig but I added to it what would be missing or close to it.
