Narrative

An employee was in the cab of the blender, preparing for well injection at a fracking site. The driveline disengaged from the transmission and started striking the cage that encloses the driveline. This created sparks and ignited a fire. The employee sustained burns around their eyes and cheeks and burns to both hands.
