Brazil?s energy company Petrobras reported that five its workers on the Ocean Yatzy rig in Brazil's Campos basin were hurt in an accident in the early hours of Tuesday.
A flexible line used to inject fluids depressurized suddenly, destabilizing the rig and injuring the workers. The five workers were flown to shore.
American deepwater drilling contractor Diamond Offshore Services owns the semisubmersible Ocean Yatzy.
Petrobras and the companies involved have formed a commission to investigate the causes of the accident.
