Abstract: Fire extinguishing and oil and gas well recovery system, which is particularly suitable for use in oil and petrochemical mining, characterised in that it comprises a detailed sequence of operations that are performed by means of a special caterpillar vehicle that can move safely over difficult terrain or through the desert. The vehicle can be used to approach the well while guaranteeing the safety of individuals, to position the explosive charge and detonate it for the subsequent recovery of the well. The special vehicle is equipped with an articulated arm, which together with a jib crane can handle any type of element, a front hydraulic shovel; rear motorisation, a control cabin and several pressurised water canons. The whole unit is heat-protected by means of special thermal insulation.
