If you’ve worked in the oil and gas industry you may know how catastrophic a plant or refinery explosion can be. Some explosions are so large that it not only affects workers but also surrounding neighborhoods around the plant. It’s no secret that the oil and gas industry has seen unprecedented growth in Texas over the past few years. This has of course brought with a significant increase in plant and refinery related explosions.
Federal Law dictates stringent codes and guidelines for the oil and gas industry but these laws are sometimes thrown to the wayside in order to meet high production demand. Disregard for these safety measures is the cause of most of the injuries and death for oil and gas plant workers.
