<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Nolan Workman, post: 2988285, member: 87452&quot;]A current safety tip from my time in the oil patch, with the total unfettering of the oil industry in the last year, opening national parks, public lands and the Continental Shelf to drilling comes an added danger. If one of these fields is near you and a well has an aviation wind sock on a pole? It is an H2S hydrogen sulfide producing well. It is a &quot;two step&quot; gas, breathe it, two steps, and you are dead. H2S is an organic gas and smells like rotten eggs from the sulfur. Get yourself a high quality respirator, and no beards as the gas will go around them. We worked these wells and it added a pucker factor. You could tell a well by dead rabbits, coyotes and birds around them.</p><p>I read some text that says we really no longer need blow out preventers. Who knew?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
