Alert 07 – 15 Stringing Up Drill Line Results in LTI
WHAT HAPPENED:
While stringing the drill line on a new rig, the injured party (IP) was ‘pulling’ or ‘guiding’ the deadline between two crown sheaves. At that time, the IP’s fingers on his right hand got caught between the deadline and the keeper guard. The result was the amputation of two finger tips on his right hand.
