Not from a movie perspective, but on the feelings of the accident itself

As a former half of the industry insider, the undergraduate graduation project, the three-year postgraduate study, and the master's thesis also started from this, and for me, I have different feelings about this movie or accident.

Remembering the initial research, there were only a bunch of English reports and a brief overview of the accident to refer to, which was too tricky. Later, the data that can be collected gradually increased and became more detailed.

Regardless of who is responsible, in terms of accident narratives alone, the movie is more able to grasp the key points. The occurrence of accidents is never accidental. Superposition occurs in space, and then accidents occur. When the condensation time of the cementing mud is insufficient, the mud is replaced, and the formation pressure is unbalanced, and the well kick occurs first. The BOP failed to shut in, a blowout occurred, and it also failed to cut the drillpipe later, with a continuous supply of crude oil, and the platform burned for 87 days.

In 1988, the Piper Alpha platform exploded, killing 167 people. The accident spawned a series of regulations for the oil industry. However, only 22 years later, the Deepwater Horizon accident that shocked the world occurred again.

For me personally, this movie perfected my imagination of the accident, and I couldn't calm down for a long time after the movie ended. I'm still working on oil-related work, and even though I'm not in offshore oil, I still feel overwhelmed by responsibilities. "Safety first" should never be just a slogan, which requires cooperation at all levels to be truly realized. I have a long way to go, I don't know if I can go on...

    #deep sea catastrophe# Mark Wahlberg is based on the 2010 US Gulf of Mexico disaster. It is really shocking and tearful. The highlight is that the silent film at the end has a strong sense of reality, which makes people feel empathy and pass.
