Investigation Summary
At approximately 11:00 a.m. on May 31, 2002, Employee #1 was at the bottom of the Number 4 coker drum while being trained by a coworker. He was reconnecting the bottom head of the coke drum, which had just been emptied, to the 12-in. feed line while the coworker observed. Employee #1 loosened the four bolts holding the flanges together when a puff of steam appeared, followed by a surge of hot water. The hot water struck Employee #1 on the right side of his body and he suffered first-, second-, and third-degree burns to his right side, leg, and foot.
