2021 2nd Alert HiPo33 Release of the BHA from the BH elevator
After finishing making up 6 1/8" bit with the motor, the driller lifted the whole assembly by BX Elevator then pushed towards Drawworks/Mud tanks side and rested it on the rotary mat to allow the crew to remove the bit breaker by winch from well center. While winch was being prepared to lift the bit breaker, the BX elevator opened and as a result, the drilling assembly which was in a tilted position fell on the rig floor (between the DPs setback and adjacent V door post) and bounced off the rig floor and fell into the ground. Motor got bent, No injury to Personnel.
Ensure Driller and crew are fully concentrated during operation and while dealing with equipment. Ensure to keep attention to signs of fatigue during crew changes and manage them. Ensure good communication between Driller & Crew. It is safer to keep the elevator door against the inclination of the assembly in case the elevator opens, the assembly will remain in the elevator housing due to tool inclination. Keep weight on elevator (don’t slack off the full weight) to allow mechanism of locking pin engaged.
