At 8:30 a.m. on March 6, 2017, Employee #1 was using an eight foot
A-frame fiberglass ladder to remove the steel top cover of the natural
gas fuel filtration skid and replace the filters. The employee began to
unbolt the steel top cover when it exploded and struck the employee.
Employee #1 did not lock out/tag out, nor was the vessel
de-energized/purged prior to removing the top cover. The employee
sustained blunt force trauma to his body, causing complete amputation
of both arms, killing him.
