Oilfield and offshore workers have some of the most dangerous jobs in the world. In addition to the job being physically demanding, the hours are long and the surrounding work environment is inherently hazardous.

These factors contribute to a countless number of serious accidents every year in the oil and drilling industry.
Oilfield Injury Causes & Liability
While drunk drivers are often liable for accidents caused by their own negligence, other parties may also be held responsible. When an alcohol “provider” such as a bar, restaurant, or other type of drinking establishment serves and obviously intoxicated person, sometimes they can be accountable if that person gets behind the wheel and causes a serious injury or death while intoxicated. These types of situations are referred to as “dram shop” cases.
