They'd shove a shitload of explosives right into the middle of the wellhead, and KAFUCKINGBOOM they'd go off, and suck up all the oxygen around, extinguising the flaming wellhead.

There's a movie called Hellfighters (John Wayne 1968) that was based on a guy, Red Adair, who masterminded the whole idea of "blowing out" oil well fires with explosives. At 75, he was over in Kuwait putting out the oil fires after the Gulf War. Totally awesome.
Thanatos, did you just say that "trees can produce an immense amount of Co2?" I'm in a state of confusion.
Jam it back in, in the dark.
