Investigation Summary

Investigation Nr: 14557516
Event: 01/23/1985
Employee killed when struck by falling pipe

Employee #1 and a coworker, company partners, were using a Bucyrus 36l cable tool, serial #71171, to pull the surface casing from a completed 800 ft oil well. Employee #1 was operating the drawworks and his partner was working the catline. The pipe was 30 ft long and weighed 20 lb/ft. It was being loaded onto a trailer by running its lower end along the catline to a gin pole on a truck in front of the trailer. The drawworks was attached by an elevator to the upper end of the pipe. The catline became entangled on the elevator latch and as the pipe reached an angle of approximately 45 degrees, the catline unlatched the elevators. The pipe fell and struck Employee #1 on the head. He was killed.
