Oklahoma City Oil Field Injury Attorneys

The likelihood of a fatal accident at an oil field or any oil drilling site in Oklahoma City is great. Oil fields are generally hazardous places for all types of workers at the site. The pressure to keep the drilling rig operating at a fast and profitable rate may mean that the company will cut corners in regard to hiring trained personnel or implementing safety standards. They may even skimp on proper maintenance of machinery, which only increases the probability of a fatal oil field accident. Oil field workers may work eight to 12-hour shifts that leave little to no time for rest, working in an environment where the deafening noise of heavy machinery drowns out any chance of communication except by hand signals.

This work is physically taxing, dirty, and generally exhausting, but there is no room for error.

Even a highly trained oil field worker who takes all the necessary precautions may be at risk of fatal injury if another worker makes a mistake or if safety regulations are not carefully followed. Falling from an oil derrick, being caught in machinery, or struck by its moving parts, being hit by a falling tool or pipe, pipeline blowouts, fires and explosions are all dangers that an oil field worker may face on a daily basis. If a worker is the victim of any of these, catastrophic or fatal injury is probable.
