Louisiana welder injured in fall on vessel in North Sea

Posted on February 12, 2008 by Maritime Lawyer

Houston, Texas maritime attorneys at Arnold & Itkin LLP are representing a welder from Louisiana in a lawsuit filed in Harris County Texas against Allseas USA, Inc.

The offshore worker was injured on August 15, 2007 while working as a welder on the vessel LORELAY.  The vessel was operating in the North Sea and was supposed to remain relatively stationary so the welder could do his work safely.  However, the vessel’s thrusters were not working properly so it was getting tossed around in rough seas.  This caused the welder to fall and sustain injuries to his back.
