ABSTRACT:
A bell-like apparatus adapted to be lowered to the ocean floor and controllably positioned to cover an uncontrolled well. The control means includes a plurality of anchors which are dispersed about the well to guide a series of tensioning cables. The latter are attached to the bell, threaded through the respective anchors, and thereafter led to the surface of the water by an elongated conduit whereby they can be controlled.
