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.

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.
