Common Causes of New Mexico Oilfield Injuries and Deaths

Anyone who works on an oilfield is well aware of the danger they face.

In fact, 1,566 U.S. oilfield works were involved in fatal accidents from 2013 to 2022, which is roughly the same number of soldiers killed fighting in Afghanistan.

Home to much of the Permian Basin, New Mexico has the fourth highest number of oil and gas fatalities in the nation. Only three states – Louisiana, Oklahoma, and Texas – recorded more.

Oilfield workers are constantly exposed to hazardous materials and conditions, including heavy machinery, heights, chemicals, and moving vehicles. As a result, some of the most common oilfield injuries include:

Burns from explosions, blowouts and volatile hydrocarbons
Fires, blowouts, and explosions
Being struck or crushed by tools or machinery
Equipment and machinery malfunctions
Motor vehicle crashes going to and from the oil rigs

The U.S. Occupational Safety & Health Administration (OSHA) has established strict safety standards to protect oilfield workers from potentially deadly accidents, fires, and explosions. However, it’s been our experience that most oilfield tragedies are entirely preventable and directly result from a company’s decision to ignore vital safety rules in their rush to extract as much oil and gas from the ground as quickly as possible.

What You Can Expect from Your Company and its Insurer After an Oilfield Accident

When an oilfield worker is seriously injured or killed, the worker and their family may be entitled to substantial compensation beyond standard workers’ compensation benefits, including payment for future lost wages, inability to work in the future, past or future pain or physical impairment, and many other damages you’re not able to recover unless you file a lawsuit.

No matter what they tell you, your company and their insurer will do everything possible to avoid responsibility for your injuries and limit your financial recovery.

Some of the things you can expect from your company following a serious oilfield accident include:

Pressuring you for a recorded statement, which they’ll later use against you.
Hiring private investigators to follow, photograph, and videotape you and your family.
“Losing” vital evidence proving the company was at fault (or that you were not at fault) for your injuries.
Blaming you by claiming you failed to “stop work” or perform a complete JSA or Hazard Analysis before starting the job.
Attempting to discredit you by obtaining conflicting statements from co-workers or “experts” hired by the company after the accident
Minimizing the severity of your injuries by sending you to doctors hired and paid by the company, its insurer, or the workers’ compensation provider.
Using anything you and your family post on social media to claim that you’re exaggerating or lying about your injuries.

You can prevent this and ensure that you and your family recover the maximum compensation possible by hiring an experienced Oil Field Injury Lawyer as soon after the accident as possible.

What to Do After a New Mexico Oilfield Accident or Explosion

After an oilfield accident, it’s essential to take the necessary steps to protect your rights and your family’s future as soon as possible:

Stop working immediately.
Report your injury as soon as possible.
Demand immediate medical treatment at a doctor of your choice.
Do not give a formal statement, sign ANY paperwork, or accept any money from the company (besides your normal paycheck) before speaking with an experienced oil field injury lawyer.
Contact our Undefeated Oilfield Accident Lawyers as soon as possible.

You must act quickly. While you’re deciding whether or not to hire an attorney, the company and its team of lawyers will be working to escape responsibility and avoid paying you and your family the damages you deserve.
