2016 Second Alert - LTI#36 LTI
When breaking out the first connection following Milling operations, a Manual Tong was latched onto the Drill Pipe to secure it in place. The bottom connection had already been broken and was resting in the thread housing from the below Drill Pipe. The Manual Tong was slipping on the Drill Pipe when force was applied through the Power Swivel so the Driller instructed the Floor Man to stay within the Red Zone to hold it in place.
Always ensure you talk about the importance of the Red Zone during your Tool Box Talks Do not remain within the Red Zone while equipment is being operated Always check that your equipment is correctly placed, prepared or secured before applying torque and increasing the potential energy. Always check the Rig Floor is clear before operating equipment Make sure all crew members understand the empowerment to stop an unsafe act.
