Investigation Summary
A work over crew of five employees (driller, derrick hand, two floor hands and supervisor) was working a well. The crew removed a 13-ft guard rail from around the well's counter weight to make room for a long beam that work over rig guy to. The crew worked the well for a week and on the morning of May 2, 2007 had successfully gotten the well working. Employees were instructed to clean tools until the supervisor return with a pressure washer. When the supervisor returned, he found Employee #1, a floor hand, lying on the ground where the Pittman arm of the counterweight was turning. From brain matter laying on the ground it was obvious that Employee #1 had been struck in the head. Employee #1 was killed.
