Trend analysis for Cyclone Drilling Inc.

Between 2022 and 2024, Cyclone Drilling Inc.'s Total Case Rate held roughly steady from 2.1 to 2.1 recordable injuries per 100 full-time workers, a 2% increase across 2 years of OSHA reporting.

The safest year on record was 2022, at a TCR of 2.1, while 2024 saw the highest rate, at 2.1, a spread of 0.0 points between the best and worst reporting years. That's a comparatively narrow spread, suggesting a fairly consistent safety record across the 3 years with a usable rate on file, rather than one outlier year skewing the multi-year average.

Summed across those 3 reporting years, Cyclone Drilling Inc. recorded 35 total injuries and illnesses and 1 fatality. Readers comparing establishments should weigh the 3-year trend above alongside establishment size, since a larger workforce naturally accumulates more raw incidents even at a lower per-100-worker rate.

DART Rate, Transparent Calculation (2024)

What is the DART rate formula?

DART (Days Away, Restricted, or Transferred) is computed by OSHA as incidents × 200,000 ÷ hours worked. The 200,000-hour denominator equals roughly 100 full-time workers, which lets establishments of very different sizes be compared directly.

5 DART incidents × 200,000 ÷ 1,126,823 hours worked = 0.89 DART

Methodology: 29 CFR 1904, OSHA Form 300A recordkeeping
