(Medford-AP) -- An industrial fire in Medford has injured four workers.

A cause has not been determined for the fire at the Koch Hydrocarbon Plant.

Koch spokesman Bob Aebi says the fire's flash point was in the plant's central area where raw natural gas is processed.

Three employees of a Medford welding company were taken to an Oklahoma City hospital with burns. Diego Herrera is in critical condition. Christopher Callagher and Hipolito Velasquez are in serious condition. A fourth man -- Clifford Johnson of Drummond -- is in fair condition at an Enid hospital.

The plant has operated in Medford for 30 years and employs almost two-hundred people.
