They're just paper, they do not contain a lithium battery.
~~You are aware that fuckin everything has a battery now, right? Including the vast majority of non-corded tools available on a refinery?~~
Edit: Derp. My brain misfired and collapsed 'refinery' and 'off shore drilling platform' into the same thing in a catastrophic level of idiocy.
They make tools specifically for that called intrinsically safe tools that are certified for use in explosive environments
Saw a set of brass wrenches at work back in the day. Had no idea that was a thing.
Ah, I should also add, that oil companies use air powered tools, not electric tools.
Why do you think that they'd use battery powered tools if, according to that other guy, they've banned lithium?
Because I'm a moron. I edited it.
You're not a moron, people make mistakes and you're beautiful <3
Nah I a moron. I appreciate it though <3
Read my other comment and take it up with Chevron.
