What Is the Trinity Petroleum Lawsuit About? Warner et al. v. Trinity Petroleum Management, LLC, No. 1:25-cv-00748-SKC-NRN

Trinity Petroleum Management is a full-service oil and gas outsourcing company based in Colorado. The lawsuit alleges the company failed to adequately protect the sensitive personal information it held on behalf of employees, contractors, and other individuals connected to its oil and gas clients.

On October 14, 2024, unauthorized access to Trinity Petroleum Management’s systems was discovered. The company took steps to halt further access and launched an investigation. It was found that the breach occurred between October 10 and October 14, 2024. By December 18, 2024, the investigation revealed that personal data, including names and Social Security numbers, may have been compromised.

The breach compromised sensitive personal information including full names, Social Security numbers, addresses, and dates of birth — putting affected individuals at risk of identity theft and financial fraud. The lawsuit argues that Trinity’s failure to properly safeguard this personally identifiable information (PII) violated state and federal consumer protection and data privacy standards.

Trinity and the other defendants deny any wrongdoing. The parties agreed to settle to avoid the cost and uncertainty of trial. The court has not yet issued a final ruling on whether the settlement is fair — that decision comes at the July 20, 2026 hearing.

  • You reside in the United States

How Much Can You Get from the Trinity Petroleum Settlement?

The settlement offers three separate data breach compensation options. You choose the one that fits your situation — but you cannot stack the cash options on top of each other.

Option 1 — Reimbursement for Documented Losses (up to $5,000)

If you suffered actual out-of-pocket losses because of the breach, you can claim up to $5,000.00 in reimbursement. Covered expenses include:

  • Identity theft or fraud losses
  • Fees for credit reports, credit monitoring, or credit freeze/unfreeze services
  • Cost to replace a government-issued ID
  • Postage for mailing correspondence to banks or credit bureaus

You must provide proof — bank statements, receipts, or similar documentation. Self-written notes alone are not sufficient without supporting records. Losses must have occurred between October 10, 2024 and June 29, 2026.

Option 2 — Compensation for Lost Time (up to $100)

If you spent time dealing with the fallout from the breach, you can claim up to four hours at $25.00 per hour, for a maximum of $100.00. Qualifying activities include:

  • Changing passwords after the breach
  • Investigating suspicious activity in your accounts
  • Researching the data incident itself

Option 3 — Flat $55.00 Cash Payment (no proof required)

Instead of either option above, you can claim a one-time $55.00 payment with no documentation required. This is the fastest and simplest option if your out-of-pocket losses were minimal or hard to document.

Credit Monitoring — Available to All Class Members

Regardless of which cash option you choose, every class member can enroll in three years of CyEx Identity Defense Complete, which includes:

  • Real-time credit file monitoring
  • Dark web scanning
  • Comprehensive public records monitoring
  • $1,000,000 in identity theft insurance
  • Access to a fraud resolution agent
