Investigation Summary
On May 10, 2005, Employee #1 was guiding the hoisted "slip" (pipe) to the slip pipe secured at the wellhead, by cupping his hands around the pipe. As the slip was lowered, Employee #1 moved his thumb across the edge of the coupling of the awaiting slip just as the two pieces began to join together. This pinching action severely injured Employee #1's thumb sufficiently enough that a surgical amputation was required. Employee #1 was hospitalized.
