So you work on Patterson 179? Heard everybody is ok.

 

[DeerAssassin]

Yep...Lucky I was on days off.

I have a buddy that works on that rig that said he is in class in the city this week.

Glad nobody was hurt.

As I was flying into OKC Sunday night I noticed most of western Oklahoma was dotted with drilling activity.
Hope you find another rig to work on quickly.

Any word on what caused the explosion? Glad everyone's OK.

I can't really say what I have been told about cause or suspected cause. I could see the glow from the fire around 25 miles away. I would attach a picture but I haven't any luck uploading from my phone.
