2024LTI#21 Pinch Point Finger Injury
On 26th October 2024 at 20:15, during rig move operations, the task was to rig down the power tong from the rig floor to BOP trailer using a crane. After being lowered from the rig floor, the power tong was positioned on the BOP trailer. A floorman (IP) then attempted to manually lower the power tong cylinder from a vertical to a horizontal position to secure it on the cylinder racking stand. During this process, the floorman was controlling the cylinder descending resulting in his left-hand index finger caught between the cylinder and the cylinder rack stand. Floorman was immediately taken to the PDO clinic and was subsequently transferred to Muscat hospital for further treatment, as recommended by the PDO doctor.

Crane and forklift was available but floorman decided to lower the cylinder using his hand There was sufficient lighting in the area
