UPDATE: An earlier version of this story, citing a worker at Bai Hassan, said that KRG Deputy Prime Minister Qubad Talabani and Minister of Natural Resources Ashti Hawrami were due to be touring the field on Monday, around the time of the accident. A senior KRG official later said there had been no such plans.
