The family of a Texas worker killed in a refinery explosion has filed a lawsuit against two boilermaking companies.
The deadly explosion took place last month at Valero’s Texas City refinery. Worker Tommy D. Manis was killed when a boiler exploded, and two other workers were injured in the blast.
Manis and the others were trying to restart a steam boiler when a pressure blast occurred. Manis was killed instantly in the workplace accident.
The lawsuit is being brought by Roger Manis and Barbara Manis against Babcock & Wilcox Power Generation Group Inc. and Halgo Power Inc. In the lawsuit, the plaintiffs accuse the two companies of improperly designing, building and installing the boiler that exploded on December 4th.
The plaintiffs are seeking approximately $75,000 in damages and have requested a jury trial.
