道达尔挪威子公司Total Norge的发言人表示,事故是由于起重机倒塌在Martin Linge平台井台模块上引发的,但道达尔目前还不清楚事故的具体原因,也不清楚在建平台的受损程度。目前,发生事故的施工现场已经关闭,尚不确定建造工作将于何时重启,死亡人员中并没有道达尔的工人。由于这起事故,三星重工巨济船厂的全部工作已经停止。
道达尔在一份声明中称,Total Norge和Martin Linge管理层的首批代表已经前往韩国,将为项目管理和项目主要承包商——Technip及三星重工——的后续工作提供支持,更多管理层代表将于5月2日动身前往韩国。
对于这场事故,警方目前已经认定是人员操作不当。当地警方还将调查施工现场工人是否遵守安全条例,以及起重机司机和安全监管人员是否有任何操作错误。警方表示,目前,事故现场依然一片混乱,警方和消防队正在营救可能被埋在事故现场的其他伤员。

Six people died and more than 20 were injured when a crane collapsed at a Samsung Heavy Industries shipyard in South Korea on Monday, Yonhap News Agency said.
The incident took place during the construction of an oil platform for French energy company Total's Martin Linge field off Norway. The extent of any damage to the platform was not immediately clear, a Total spokesman in Norway said.
Total and Samsung Heavy said it was also not clear how the incident might affect delivery of the platform, which was expected to start producing oil and gas in the North Sea in 2018.
'It's too early to say what would be the consequences for delivering the platform, but for the time being all work at the yard has been stopped and the investigation is ongoing,' said Leif Harald Halvorsen, a spokesman for Total's Norwegian subsidiary.
South Korea's Yonhap said 22 people were injured, including three severely.
'The crane fell onto the platform's well bay module, where the people were working,' Halvorsen said.
No Total employees were killed or injured in the incident, which took place around 0545 GMT at the shipyard in Geoje, he added.
Total owns a 51 percent stake in the Martin Linge license, while Norwegian state-owned Petoro has 30 percent and Statoil 18 percent.
