Offshore Accidents Many offshore accident injuries are the result of falls, defective machinery, pipeline and roughneck work, sulfur hydroxide fumes and tank explosions to name just a few. Injuries can be unusually severe and result in serious disability that prevents the injured from returning to work and earning a livelihood. Many such accidents are preventable if proper safety precautions are taken and the site manager develops and enforces clear safety rules and guidelines. Those responsible for the site may be held liable if any injuries from accidents occur.
