Oil and gas well drilling and servicing activities involve the use and production of potentially hazardous materials. Potential health hazards for workers in the oil and gas industry include exposure to toxic chemicals such as hydrogen sulfide, hazardous noise levels, inhalation of diesel particulate matter, working confined space, heat stress, and exposure to silica which can result in silicosis.
