Gulf of Paria Underwater Welders Deaths: Lawsuits Filed

[Xplode]

that means the pipe had plenty air in it somehow

They had aircompressor working for fresh air ,what a way to suffer ,even heard one was in a split position ,another feet and head touching crouch.

[pugboy]

who would have been responsible for keeping the compressor running after paria issue stop rescue orders ?

[goalpost]

Didn't see any major media report on the autopsy findings, so not sure if legit tho

[carluva]

Within one week. We have already forgotten the massive nationwide power outage.

How long before this tragedy fades from the national memory and we let the people responsible get away Scott free? Just think about the 1 year old baby the coast guard shot in the head, look how quickly we forget about that already.

[S_2NR]

What power outage?

I cannot even imagine what these men went through.

The pain, suffering and discomfort in such a small space….

If true, the one in the split position would have most likely been sucked in foot first and the other from the lower back.

Ok im done assuming, can’t bear to think about it.

Seeing conspiracy theories that Piper was involved in the fuel smuggling racket using equipment that not supposed to be in use.The truth will come out eventually.Either he's a crook,a sociopath or a jackarse.

[Redman]

Well the Express carried a story today on the rescue diver.
He quoted the survivor as saying that they were banging since 230pmFriday.
I don't know if this is poor construction of the sentence.

Ramoutar said they returned to the surface with Boodram, who appeared to be shaken by the ordeal. He had been underwater since 2.30 p.m. that day, knocking the pipeline and calling for help.

The truth could come out…..it always does.

Everyone knows or will eventually know what happened….

But that’s where it stops.

I have set my mind that nothing will come out of this.

I disagree.

The stage is already set towards discrediting whatever the official result is.

And in that regard the lessons to be learned will instead be lost,to the detriment of the institutional capacity.

Sad but true

Is there more than one Piper or same person those claims attributed to?

[shake d livin wake d dead]

All those allegations and still drawing a nice pay check...when in Rome......

[pugboy]

you mean agree

[The_Honourable]

So if there is some iota of truth to that autopsy results...status quo has changed and we looking at murder charges?

Any of the families confirmed this? Seeing suggestions that it was just when the district medical officer declared the 3/4 divers dead on monday.

[Redman]

i wasnt clear…i disagree.
we love to “know” what happen, without the truth being revealed,accepted and benefited from.

look at what has been said so far.
Everybody know.

the truth, what actually happened is probably a mundane underwhelming sequence of events.
with catastrophic consequences, but not satisfactory for the conspiracies that abound.

so people already “know” what went down,and will never believe whatever the official story is.

Same Colin Piper...he was there since Petrotrin days

[sMASH]

The safeties failed, either due to improper assessment in the planning, or operator error to introduce the vacuum.


Still not clear what caused the vacuum to suck the guys in.

[aaron17]

Idk about this..
How long it took to normalize the pipe? After 3 days? Also we have to take in consideration that they were looking for them and could not locate them in the pipe after the pipe was deemed to be safe to search?

[Redman]

Getting sucked into a vertical 30 inch pipe and ending up x00 feet along the lateral piece, in the midst of the contents of the habitat,tanks, etc.
I'm sorry I pray those guys did not suffer and I don't think surviving for 3 days is likely.

[eliteauto]

The jackass social media commentators who can't read a death certificate are causing further distress to the families of the deceased

[timelapse]

Plenty of allyuh were on the George Flloyd bandwagon.These are our countrymen who literally couldn't breathe for 3 days.Somebody head has to roll

These deaths are likely caused by negligence or reckless endangerment, perhaps worse. Those acts ARE criminal.

If you want this to parallel the George Floyd incident, you would need at least fifteen TTPS officers to open a hatch, force the five divers through the hatch into the pipe, and then hold the hatch shut until after they were dead. And then refuse them medical attention.

This is basically what Paria did to those men.Cutting the pipe was never an option?
I keep hearing about reckless practices there and from Petrotrin days, especially about that Piper guy.That being true,once is an accident three or four times is a habit

[Redman]

The only similarity between G Floyd whole scenario and this-is there is plenty janjat in dealing with the persons, while ignoring the systemic elephants in the room.

So drape up the officers that killed Floyd, not recognising that the incident is a symptom.
Piper could be hung High,the board drawn and quartered- but the song will remain the same, unless there is a change in how work is done here.

Anything other than blocking the only available exit

Answer is in the 3 vids (FB "live") on the night of the incident (Friday) where they showed Berth 5 and then on Sunday 1 from Gary Aboud and another from Inshan when they were out at sea.
On Friday Berth 5 was empty on Sunday there is a Tanker alongside, assumed berthed on Saturday and departed Monday whilst the Coast Guard was "securing the area".
Divers missing in a pipeline between Berth 6 & 5......no rescue efforts but line capped, yet a Tanker was brought onto Berth 5???? a dedicated crude Berth??? Seems it was very important to have that vessel inside and out with the utmost urgency.
Timeframe matches with "recovery" efforts on Monday.........after vessel departed.
