      From: brewnoserii@gmail.com              When Nexen is not flooding the land with oil from ruptured - but undetected -       pipelines, it's killing its workers through explosions at worksites.              And the premiers of these provinces - Alberta, BC and Saskatchewan - dare to       chastise the Mayors of Quebec for not wanting to gamble more pipelines through       their lands?       _________________________________________       THE CANADIAN PRESS - Tuesday, January 26, 2016              Death toll now at 2: Worker badly burned in Alberta oilsands explosion dies                     EDMONTON -- Occupational Health and Safety says a 30-year-old worker who was       critically injured in an explosion at an oilsands upgrader in northern Alberta       has died.              The man, identified previously by his cousin as Dave Williams of Scotchtown,       N.S., had been transported to the burn unit at an Edmonton hospital after the       blast Jan. 15.              Kelly MacEachern told the Cape Breton Post last week that her cousin was a       journeyman millwright and had been living and working in the West for several       years, but loved coming home for vacations and was in Cape Breton for       Christmas.       Related Stories              It's the second death resulting from the explosion -- a 52-year-old employee       was pronounced dead at the scene.              The blast occurred at Calgary-based Nexen's (TSX:NXY) Long Lake plant near       Fort McMurray on Jan. 15.              A Nexen official said at the time that the two men were doing maintenance work.              No one else was injured.              The blast occurred in a part of the upgrader that breaks hydrocarbon molecules       into smaller pieces to make a lighter oil product for shipping.              Nexen Energy ULC was acquired by China's state-owned CNOOC Ltd. more than two       years ago.              A pipeline rupture at the plant last summer leaked five million litres of a       mixture of bitumen, produced water and sand into muskeg. Documents show the       Alberta Energy Regulator's investigation into the spill continues, even though       the deadline to        determine what caused it was Oct. 15       _________________________________________________              Alberta pipelines: 5 major oil spills in recent history       http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/alberta-pipelines-5-major-oil-spil       s-in-recent-history-1.3156604              http://globalnews.ca/news/2115361/nexens-fort-mcmurray-pipeline-       pill-one-of-canadas-biggest-ever/              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
