Powering Safety in the Energy Sector
Oil and gas workers face serious electrical hazards throughout every stage of the job. Within each plant, the utilities unit faces consistent high-voltage risks. New projects add to the danger, especially when wiring new systems or tying them into existing infrastructure. Contractors further increase exposure when bringing in their own equipment — whether using temporary power sources, tapping into live circuits, or wiring up short-term machinery like compressors. Combined with the risk of falls in elevated or confined spaces, these electrical dangers make real-time safety awareness and rapid emergency response essential on every site.
Risk Factors for Oil and Gas Workers:
Combustion & Blowouts
Working with combustible materials like oil and gas increases the risk of death and injury. This industry requires workers to operate in dangerous situations, often by themselves.
Falls
Electrical Hazards
Oil and gas are driven by high-voltage systems, harsh environments, and flammable materials –creating serious risks of shock, arc flash, or explosion.
Crush Accidents
- Combustion & Blowouts — Working with combustible materials like oil and gas increases the risk of death and injury. This industry requires workers to operate in dangerous situations, often by themselves.
- Falls — Workers who are required to be on top of heavy equipment or on top of derricks face a greater risk of falling. This is one of the most common accidents in the field.
- Electrical Hazards — Oil and gas are driven by high-voltage systems, harsh environments, and flammable materials – creating serious risks of shock, arc flash, or explosion.
- Crush Accidents — Workers on-site face many challenges when it comes to equipment safety. Workers can be hit by debris, materials, and tools around them at any point.
