BP accidents heighten safety scrutiny in Texas facilities
In southeast Texas a BP plant suffered a second accident in a week, the sixth in under two years, prompting investigations into safety programs and hazard analyses. The March Texas City explosion killed 15 and injured 170, while recent incidents include isomerization unit blasts and a gas leak. BP officials cite ongoing inquiries and environmental monitors report no local air or water issues, as critics call BP’s safety record troubling.
