Control of Well Insurance protects energy operators, drilling contractors, and resource extraction organizations against the financial and operational exposures arising from loss of control incidents involving oil, gas, geothermal, or energy wells.

Coverage is designed to support financial stability and operational continuity when well control events result in blowouts, uncontrolled flow, fire, explosion, or other major operational incidents.

Coverage typically responds to costs associated with regaining control of a well, redrilling expenses, pollution cleanup, firefighting operations, and other emergency response measures arising from covered well control incidents.

Coverage may also include protection for seepage and pollution liability, evacuation expenses, debris removal, property damage, third-party liability exposures, and operational interruption associated with drilling and well servicing activities.

For multinational energy organizations, Control of Well coverage may be coordinated through a Controlled Master Program (CMP), such as the WMB Global Risks Global Master Program, with locally admitted policies where required to support coordinated energy protection, regulatory compliance, and consistent coverage standards across jurisdictions.

Control of Well Insurance is designed to help organizations manage catastrophic energy exposures, protect financial stability, and maintain continuity across complex drilling and extraction operations.
