Investigation Summary
At 2:00 a.m. on July 9, 2022, an employee was wrapping ends of non-energized electric cables coming from a drilling rig. The employee was working at the bottom of an articulating grasshopper arm on a drilling rig at ground level . A winch was at the top of the arm and was holding a junction box in place above the employee as he wrapped ends of electrical cables. The wire-rope winch line holding the junction box that was above the employee as he worked broke, causing it to fall onto the employee. The employee sustained severe head injuries and was killed.
