2019 Second Alert HiPo#58 Dropped working platform
After rig up the Hoist, the driller observed the block not in the centre to the well. Therefore, the crew decided to rig down the Hoist and adjust it again. While scooping down the upper section of the mast, the traveling block links hit the working platform and broke the safety clamp which was holding the folded working platform. As a result, the working platform dropped from one end and hit the well head.
Always use wire rope sling with shackle instead of using uncertified clamp to fasten the Hoist floor Always include folded Working platform in the DROP survey and checklist. Always follow OEM recommendation. Ensure secondary retention for working platforms prior to the move.
