Halliburton, DII Industries, Dresser, Harbison-Walker or Kellogg Brown & Root workers may have been at particularly high asbestos exposure risk risk. Occupations that were at very high risk for exposure include:

The oil and gas industry widely used asbestos in piping and in a variety of machinery and equipment. With these uses alone, tens of thousands of workers were widely exposed to toxins and now risk developing fatal diseases like mesothelioma and lung cancer.
