Undefeated Houston Chemical Plant Injury Lawyers
On October 10, 2024, a chemical release occurred at the Pemex refinery in Deer Park, Texas, tragically claiming one life and injuring several others. The incident, which involved the release of hydrogen sulfide—a toxic gas—prompted emergency responders to issue a shelter-in-place order for the surrounding community, reflecting the gravity of the situation.
The Deer Park complex is co-operated by Pemex and Shell, with Pemex running the refinery and Shell overseeing the adjacent petrochemical facility. Unfortunately, explosions and chemical releases are not uncommon in the industrial sector, especially in the Gulf Coast region, where high-risk facilities are concentrated.
These incidents typically occur due to inadequate safety protocols, poor maintenance, or lack of employee training—factors that are preventable with proper oversight and compliance.
