Their task was to remove and service an air-filled plug from a 30-inch oil pipeline. However, the job turned into a nightmare when the valve opened and an unexpected pressure difference created, sucking the divers into the pipe with a powerful vortex. They found themselves in a dangerous and life-threatening situation, trapped in the dark and oil-filled pipe. Christopher Budram, the least injured diver, took on the role of leader and tried to lead the others out of the pipe safely. They formed a chain to help them navigate the dark and slippery tube. Along the way, they found two oxygen tanks that allowed them to breathe intermittently. Chris made the difficult decision to continue alone to seek help, leaving the other divers behind. Chris eventually managed to escape the tube and alerted rescuers to the situation. A rescue operation was immediately launched, but faced many challenges, including poor visibility and the narrowness of the tube. Rescuers attempted to communicate with the divers in the tube, but despite several attempts, the rescue efforts failed and were eventually abandoned. An investigation into the incident revealed several problems with the rescue efforts and safety protocols. The government of Trinidad and Tobago established a commission to investigate the events, and the report highlighted the need to improve communications, update safety protocols, and equip rescuers with adequate equipment. Christopher Budram has since dedicated himself to campaigning for better safety practices in industrial sectors to prevent similar tragedies from happening in the future.
