I. Facts and Proceedings Below

James and Anne Johnson sued Helmerich & Payne International Drilling Co. (H & P) and Atlantic Richfield Company (Arco). The plaintiffs’ suit was based on theories of strict liability and negligence. Johnson was injured on an offshore drilling rig when he slipped on wet casing (pipe). H & P owned the rig and one of their employees washed the rig and made the casing wet. Arco owned the casing and the fixed platform on which the rig was situated. Johnson’s employer — Dresser Industries, Inc.— intervened to recover benefits it had paid Johnson.
