When you go past the headline, yes. The depiction of the oil industry as in decline and dangerous for both people working in it and around it is accurate
I think the spin on it being dangerous is more “Look at these brave heroes working hard to bring you oil! Such sacrifice! Like brave soldiers!”
People who watch this are unlikely to say, lobby for stricter safety regulations in the oil fields. They think the danger just has to be part of the job.
We could of course move to wind and solar. No more houses exploding from gas.
They're not riskless; people can and do fall off the roof, but a bunch of the hazards just go away
