Recent News: Avella Marcellus Shale Gas Drilling Rig Explosion Injures Three Workers
Marcellus Shale drilling is a controversial topic that is all over the news. Hydrofracking – a process that involves pumping thousands of gallons of chemically treated water into the ground through horizontal drilling to release natural gas – is a new technology.
Like with many new technologies, there are risks involved. Unfortunately, there have been many recent explosions and fires at or near Marcellus Shale well sites.
On February 23, 2011, a fire erupted on a Marcellus Shale well site in Avella, Washington County, PA. It left three workers injured, and two of them had to be flown to local hospitals for treatment – they suffered from severe burns, among other injuries.
