A VERY timely question.
The formation of gas hydrates is quite complex. Fortunately, there is a Wikipedia link, with (as usual) excellent information. Formation of these crystals requires the presence of methane, high pressures and cold conditions, all of which have been met by the blown out well. The ocean floor at 5,000 ft is approximately 42 degrees. These crystals will clog pipelines. Apparently this is what happen when the cofferdam failed to work. One very interesting fact is that the methane hydrates formed in the dome of the cofferdam and added bouyancy. A redesigned cofferdam might be heavier.
Hydrates have been a problem in Canada and Alaska wells and pipelines with the usual treatments of lower pressures, heat and methanol treatments.

To represent oil-producing states on a map, you could use a specific symbol such as an oil rig icon. This symbol is commonly used to denote locations where oil is extracted or produced. Using a consistent and easily recognizable symbol helps viewers quickly identify the oil-producing states on the map.
As I learnt it OIL RIG Oxidisation Is Loss (electrons are lost from the matter in question) Reduction Is Gain (the exact opposite electrons are gained from the matter in question)
You can put about a pint in a full tank of gas.
Oil is pumped out of the ground by first locating the oil and determining how far below the ground it is. A large drill is then used to drill to where the oil is and a rig is used to pump the oil out of the ground to be sent off to the refinery.

The oil rig, Deepwater Horizon, was nearly destroyed after a buildup of natural gas in the oil line caused an explosion. The result was the oil line rupturing, sending millions of gallons of oil a day spilling into the Gulf of Mexico.

An oil rig is an oil platform or oil production platform. A drilling is different though.
St. Petersburg has an offshore field to build the oil rig.
It takes 20000 day to build an oil rig.
No a christmas tree is only part of an oil rig.
please tell me how long you stay on a offshore oil rig
A oil rig exploded on April 20, 2010 and oil gushed out for months before the hole was plugged. There was another oil rig explosion in the Gulf on September 2, 2010 when an oil rig exploded.
oil rig.
Yes. An oil rig and an oil production platform are the same thing.A drilling rig is different though.
