Chevron offers coupons for pizza combo after fracking well explodes | The Raw Story

Seriously?

“It was very, very scary,” said a local resident. “You knew somebody had to be hurt somewhere with that explosion.”

One worker was injured following the blast; another employee is still missing. Chevron says it doesn’t know exactly what sparked the fire, but that workers were preparing to run tubing, an act done when readying wells for production.

Five days later, the fire finally went out. Chevron spokesman Kent Robertson told the local ABC affiliate he didn’t know why, but said, “there is not enough fuel being emitted to sustain combustion, and with the cooling of the crane, the ignition source has been removed.”

What is Chevron doing about the explosion?

On Sunday, Chevron Appalachia Community Outreach sent a gift certificate to those who lived in the vicinity of the blast offering them a two liter bottle of soda and one large pizza.

Seriously.
