Gets a little maddening with our state being torn to shreds because of the oil boom.  This may not have been rif-raf related....hopefully not.....but I'm guessing it was.

 For crying out loud WellArmed, you don't suppose the two poor guys had a terrible accident instead of something violent/ill intended? All the OP said was that two guys were dead and you immediately jumped to a violent scenario. Roughnecking isnt the safest occupation!

I for one am tired of the constant bashing of folks who are working in the Oil Fields. We are all Americans, and as a military member I fight for you all to voice your opinions and you are all allowed your 2 cents. But really? What makes you better than anyone else? I loved ND when I moved here 8 years ago but all ive heard lately is a bunch of self righteous whiners complaing about something they have no control over. And to top this off someone died. Brother, a husband, a father, a mentor is no longer alive. My blood is boiling. As a christian all i can do is pray for there families first and foremost and second that you who HATE other Americans rethink your comments and somehow grow up.

An oilfield accident near new town claimed the life of a Texas man on January 31st. 28 year old Charles Ross Petty of Trans Power Electric was the spotter for a trenching machine when the machine rolled backwards and pinned petty to the ground. Emergency responders tried to resuscitate Petty, but he died on route to Mountrail County Medical Center. OSHA officials are inspecting the worksite this week.
  



this was reported today on their website...

I hope it is the only one.  I have had to delivery a death message to three families in my life time and there are know words to describe that feeling. 

WellArmed I am not going to judge you or criticize you but I do believe you are a very sick person.

Is Patterson considered a safe outfit? I've heard people talk about a dangerous place before, think it was cyclone.

Don't care they are from, this is a crappy deal.  Rigs are inherently dangerous as the iron is unforgiving.
