Dana G. Kirk, senior lawyer with Kirk Law Firm, PLLC was born and raised in the center of the Permian Basin Oilfield. Dana has firsthand knowledge of the challenges and dangers involved in the production of oil and gas in the Permian Basin.
Whether a worker is a rough neck on the rig or a well service worker, or contractor, they are exposed to numerous injuries as catastrophic as explosions and fires to hidden dangers such as the presence of hydrogen sulfide gas, gathering especially in low places in the oilfield.
In the 70s and 80s, the major oil companies departed the Permian Basin in the mistaken belief that all the significant oil had been recovered. But, with the innovation of horizontal drilling and fracking, the major oil companies such as Chevron/Texaco, Shell, Valero and others are back in the Permian Basin in a big way.
This has caused enormous activity in the oilfield and much truck-traffic hauling oil or gas production, sand, water, tubing, drill pipe and other equipment necessary to create producing oil wells.
Therefore, the oilfield is more dangerous now than it ever has been, and more and more workers are injured, in one or another in the oilfield.
For decades the Kirk Law Firm, PLLC has specialized in assisting oilfield workers and landowners in litigation against oil companies when their rights have been infringed upon and when they are justly entitled to compensation.
If you trust the Kirk Law Firm, PLLC to handle your case, you can bet that we will get the most money available for your injuries.
