Workers could have been covered in petrol

A major pipeline transportation company has been fined £2.3 million for safety breaches after an incident in North Lincolnshire.

The company was fined £2.3million and ordered to pay £157,431 in costs at Grimsby Crown Court on March 24, 2023. It had the potential to form a flammable cloud extending over several metres from the work area, causing those in the immediate vicinity to potentially be covered in a heavy spray of petrol and engulfed in petrol vapour.

An investigation by HSE into the incident found that Exolum Pipeline System Ltd failed to properly identify and control the risks associated with carrying out a pipeline repair.
