California Oil Refinery Workers – Mesothelioma Cancer

Did You Know?

During the 20th century, some 30 million tons of asbestos were used in industrial sites, homes, schools, shipyards and commercial buildings in the U.S.

Asbestos in California Oil Refineries

California Oil Refinery workers were exposed to asbestos through asbestos laced machinery and equipment including boilers, turbines, and generators lined with asbestos for protection from heat and fire are examples of asbestos-laced machinery. California Oil Refinery workers may be at risk to develop asbestos diseases including malignant mesothelioma and asbestos related lung cancer.

California Oil Refinery workers and electricians have been heavily exposed to asbestos on jobsites where there were steam pipes, boilers, high temperature refractory furnace linings, insulation steam pipes, smelters, and steel ovens and other products that were protected by asbestos.

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the U.S. Government have made regulations regarding the use of asbestos in California Oil Refineries.  However, due to the long latency period of mesothelioma and other asbestos-related diseases, people are still getting sick with asbestos and mesothelioma cancer.  Below is a list of California Oil Refineries where asbestos exposure is known to have occurred.

Oil Refinery Workers – Mesothelioma Asbestos Cancer

Did You Know?
During the 20th century, some 30 million tons of asbestos were used in industrial sites, homes, schools, shipyards and commercial buildings in the U.S.

Oil Refinery workers across the Unites States were exposed to asbestos and many still continue to develop asbestos and mesothelioma cancer.  One of the most dangerous jobs was that of the Oil Refinery worker. Oil refinery workers worked around equipment that contained asbestos, such as heat exchangers, ovens, driers, furnaces, and oil pumps. Asbestos was ideal for use in oil refineries because of its ability to resist corrosion and high temperatures.

Medical studies have shown that oil refinery workers with 20 or more years of experience developed asbestos related lung disease or lung cancer. Oil Refinery workers run an increased risk of developing mesothelioma or other asbestos-related illnesses.
