Anyone who has ever worked on an oil drilling site understands the risky behavior of co-workers, lengthy work house, physical demands, possibility for human error and other perilous conditions leaving workers vulnerable to serious and fatal injuries.

Communication is done mostly using hand signals because of the high volumes of noise surrounding the site and it often prevents workers from communicating a dangerous and precarious to co-workers when there is imminent danger.

Extensive, and often, permanent and debilitating injuries can result from poorly maintained oil field equipment that breaks down if the worker even survives.
