The safety and operation details are fanciful. Might have happened like that 30-40 years ago, but no more. Safety, training, and robotics have improved a lot. Most oilfield fatalities are now car/truck wrecks, not wellsite fires and explosions (but they do happen, just not under the circumstances on the show).
But the rest of it isn't too far off the mark, just a concentrated amalgamation of the wild west that is the Oil and Gas industry.
