Oil well with liquid lock

This design uses the oil produced by the oil to well maintain a liquid lock. The excess oil pours out to whatever storage  (or other) solution you implement. (You can add a liquid lock on the right if needed.)

​

The oil (and natural gas) surrounding the oil well helps keep it cool, and minimizes the risk of water flashing to steam during the venting process.
