ExxonMobil Refinery Accident Lawyer — Baytown & Houston Area Injury Claims

The ExxonMobil Baytown Complex is the largest refinery in the United States — processing more than 560,000 barrels of crude oil per day across its refinery, olefins plant, and chemical plant facilities in Baytown, Texas, just 25 miles east of Downtown Houston. With thousands of employees and contractors working in one of the most hazardous industrial environments in the country, serious accidents at the Baytown complex and surrounding ExxonMobil facilities happen — and injured workers deserve full compensation.

Common Accidents at ExxonMobil Baytown and Gulf Coast Facilities

Explosion & Fire Injuries

Pressure releases, equipment failure, and flash fires in refining units and chemical processing areas.

Benzene & Toxic Exposure

Long-term benzene exposure linked to leukemia and blood cancers. ExxonMobil facilities are significant benzene sources.

H₂S (Hydrogen Sulfide) Exposure

Hydrogen sulfide releases can be instantly fatal. Exposure incidents at refineries are documented and actionable.

Turnaround & Contractor Injuries

Maintenance turnarounds are high-risk periods. Contractor injuries often involve third-party liability separate from ExxonMobil.

Falls & Struck-By Incidents

Falls from structures and equipment, and being struck by vehicles or materials at large industrial sites.

Asbestos / Mesothelioma

Historic ExxonMobil facilities used asbestos insulation extensively. Long-latency mesothelioma claims are still being filed today.

Important: ExxonMobil Is a Non-Subscriber in Texas

ExxonMobil is among the large Texas employers that do not subscribe to the Texas workers’ compensation system. This means that if you are injured working at an ExxonMobil facility as a direct employee, you may be able to sue ExxonMobil directly for your injuries — including for full pain and suffering, future lost earnings, and other damages that workers’ comp would not cover. This is a significant legal distinction that many injured workers don’t know about. Talk to Sara Roque before making any assumptions about your rights.
