With nearly five different gas and oil companies securing resources out of the Barnett Shale, the North Texas natural gas industry is booming. As a result of these excavations, there is also an increased risk of workplace accidents, injuries and deaths.
Workers in the oil and gas industry face dangerous industrial conditions each and every day. When an accident happens, a serious or fatal injury can lead to costly medical bills and lost wages due to extended recovery periods.

Many times, the blame for these types of accidents can be linked back to companies working in Texas who put their profits over the safety of their employees. To capitalize on profits, some corporations will cut corners and pressure workers into dangerous situations.
Some common causes of oil and gas well accidents include:
Any of the above can dramatically increase the risk of serious injury and death. Additionally, local citizens and families are at an increased risk of injury as these drilling sites move into more populated areas.
At Anderson & Cummings, our results speak for themselves.
