When Lightning Strikes: The Risks to Industrial Sites

Industrial facilities and oil fields are especially vulnerable to lightning damage. Here’s why:

  • Equipment Damage

    Lightning can fry sensitive machinery, leading to costly downtime.

  • Fire Hazards

    Flammable materials in oil fields make fires a real risk.

  • Safety Threats

    Workers are at risk of injury during a strike.

  • Operational Delays

    Even a small strike can halt production for hours or days.

With Tulsa’s stormy weather, having a reliable lightning protection system isn’t optional—it’s essential.
