Method and installation for pumping oil following an explosion on an oil rig off the coast.The method for pumping oil following an explosion on an oil rig off the coast, comprises the steps of placing a support structure (4) with a surrounding sheet (1) on the tube or oil well leak (26) with the aim of creating a hollow space in the upper part of su00edti The leak on the sea bottom (10), 2.Pumping water and oil through the top of the support structure (4) and, thus, creating a low pressure below the sheet (1) so that the sheet (1) seru00e1u00b4pressionada on the bottom of the sea due to the hydrostatic pressure of the water outside; 3. Continuously pumping the liquid below the sheet (1) from the inside of the support structure (4) to be crude oil pure, and collecting the same.The installation comprises a support structure (4) with a chamber (12) in order to create a hollow enclosure on the top part of a point or oil leaking tube (26), and a reinforced sheet (1) having a size that extends at least 10 meters on the adjacency structure support (4).The reinforced sheet (1) is firmamente fixed to the bottom edge (33) of the enclosure (12) of the support structure (4). At least a pumping pipe (6,7) is connectable to the top of the support structure (4), in order to pump liquid from the interior of the support structure (4) and the lower side of the sheet (1).
