Accidents In The Barnett Shale

Drilling-related activities have caused many unnecessary accidents in the Barnett Shale, several of which have resulted in serious personal injuries or death.

For example, in June 2014, a man was killed when his vehicle was struck by a drilling rig arm hanging into the Dallas North Tollway. The drilling rig, presumably destined for the Barnett Shale, was mounted on the bed of a triple-axle truck that had an unnecessary blowout. In 2012, a worker in the Barnett Shale was injured when he was struck in the head with pipe.
