From what I understand, the fire at the source of the movies tension was caused by an oil rig exploding. I really don’t understand how poorly sealed dynamite with its main explosive fuel source leaking would be effective enough to put out a raging fire. Seems completely counterintuitive.

When you blow out a candle the air that you are blowing still has a lot of oxygen in it. But the force is great enough to move the hot region where the oxidation is happening away from the fuel source, which causes it to go out.
An explosion causes the same thing on a much bigger scale.
