barricade / contain


Explanation:
For the first围封, it looks like barricade off the area so that no one would accidentally step into the dangerous area.
For the second 围封, in oil industry, spilled fluids are usually harmful to environment, so a containment is needed to contain the liquids.
However, more context is needed to determine if the translation is correct.
As a matter of fact, 围堵is used more often in the second case instead of 围封
