WILLISTON, N.D. – Heller Casing has been cited by the U.S. Department of Labor"s Occupational Safety and Health Administration for two general duty clause safety violations after a worker was fatally crushed Jan. 31 while installing casing pipe on an oil rig in McKenzie County. The incident occurred when the worker was struck by an improperly secured load that fell, causing fatal injuries.

"Heller Casing has a responsibility to protect oil rig workers from struck-by and other hazards in this dangerous industry," said Eric Brooks, OSHA"s area director in Bismarck. "No job should cost a person"s life because an employer failed to properly protect and train workers."

OSHA cited two serious violations directly related to the fatality that involved failing to protect workers from struck-by and crushing hazards by properly securing the hook used to suspend a load, which consisted of power tongs and accurately positioning the suspension cable. The power tongs allegedly became snagged on the traveling block as it was being elevated. The tongs loosened from the block after being elevated about 15 feet and fell on the victim.

Proposed fines total $14,000. Heller Casing has 15 business days from receipt of the citations to comply, request an informal conference with OSHA"s area director, or contest the citations and penalties before the independent Occupational Safety and Health Review Commission.

Under the Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970, employers are responsible for providing safe and healthful workplaces for their employees. OSHA"s role is to ensure these conditions exist for America"s working men and women by setting and enforcing standards, and providing training, education and assistance.

Model XQ28/2.6 hydraulic power tong is an improved type of XYQ1.8 which is used to make up and break out sucker rod thread in Well Service. This product has the following features:

A. The structure is compact, concise and light. Master tong is driven by a low-speed large torque hydraulic motor that matches with a manual control valve. The backup tong is just like a spanner. The total weight is approximately equal to XYQ1.8.

B. The operating is briefness and convenience with high efficiency. Put the respondence size jaw set into master tong and the respondence size glutting into backup tong, turning the reset knob incorrect direction then can make up and break out sucker rod by operating manual control valve. Two speed, snapping at low speed, spinning at high speed.

North Dakota crude oil production surpassed 1.0 million barrels per day (bbl/d) in April and May (the latest data available). This record is the result of increasing crude oil production from the Williston Basin"s Bakken and Three Forks formations in North Dakota and eastern Montana.

Although Bakken oil production initially began in the 1950s at Antelope Field in North Dakota, large-scale production growth did not begin until after the discovery of the Parshall Field in 2007. Since then, advances in drilling methods and technology, a better understanding of the geology of the Bakken, higher crude oil prices, and the formation"s large size and number of wells all have contributed to higher production and to the potential for continued future growth.

As more wells are drilled in the Bakken, the base resource becomes better defined. Because the Bakken has a relatively low thickness (not exceeding 250 feet) and low permeability, better information on the location of available resources can quickly translate into an increase in crude oil production volumes.

Defining the resource in any formation is critical in forecasting the growth and sustainability of its oil and natural gas production. Factors such as the geologic extent, depth, thickness, and porosity of a formation can inform the estimated ultimate recovery (EUR) rate of wells that are drilled in a formation. EIA uses geologic data to better understand individual well performances and the expected EUR in the Marcellus Shale, and plans to expand these efforts over time to include other formations throughout the United States, including the Bakken.

EIA uses well data to create maps showing the extent and structure of the productive and prospective regions of the Bakken. These maps help to visualize the depth and relative thickness of the Bakken formation. In addition, depth maps define the region where the resource is within optimal drilling range. Three-dimensional thickness maps can be used to determine rough estimates of resources in this region, as well as structural features such as faults and folds.
