Admittedly, you have no first-hand experience in this area, yet you continue to yammer.
And, quite apparently, you have no idea what you are yammering about because it was a truck that exploded at a refinery (apparently didn't follow grounding protocol) and a natural gas leak.
So, until you actually know what you are talking about, why don't you STFU...

the bolded portion is what i'm calling horseshit on.....
find me one industry on earth that considers 2, or in this case, 3 explosions a week as an acceptable norm......
you won't find one because that is horseshit.
i am not yammering the truck fucking exploded...the oil rig exploded and sank.....the other oil rig has a huge gas leak and reports of white smoke being seen from the base.....hmmm gas leak, white smoke....maybe fire.
noone was even talking to you.....stfu
While I agree that all this does seem kind of fishy, it may be the fact that the Gulf oil spill incident has caused us all to by hyper-vigilant regarding any incident in the oil&gas industry. Who knows, a couple accidents a week may be the norm, they just don't break the news like they are now...
