Oilfield Accident Information

Oil and gas companies have made billions upon billions of dollars extracting crude oil from natural deposits found deep beneath the Earth's surface. Oil exploration, production, refining, and transportation are rewarding fields for workers as well, typically paying well and affording opportunities to those willing to show up and put in the work. Unfortunately, oilfield accidents put workers, communities, and the environment at risk.
