RIH 4 1/2'' RTTS on 2 7/8" HT PAC Drill Pipes from pipe racks was in progress. The 13th joint was hanging from the 2 7/8” slip type B&V Elevator in order to make-up with power tong. There was an issue observed with power tong that required fixing and it was decided to keep the drill pipe out of the floor next to the V door hanging. At that moment the drill pipe suddenly slipped thru the elevator and fell down to the ground.
