Three men hospitalized after a flash fire at an EOG Resources Inc. (EOG) natural-gas well site in Wyoming are in stable condition, a company representative said Wednesday.

The Tuesday afternoon fire occurred while a four-man crew was cleaning one of two small liquids storage tanks on the site, south of La Barge, Wyo., the company said.

Two EOG employees and two contract workers were injured. Three of the men were hospitalized in Salt Lake City, Utah. The fourth was treated and released.

The fire was put out Tuesday and the well has been shut in, EOG said.
