Investigation Summary
At 3:20 p.m. on June 19, 2013, an employee was welding out a hole in the overhead of a rake bow for a jack up rig using a welding box (LN-25 Portable CV/CC Semiautomatic Wire Feeder), blower box and personal tool bucket. Several coworkers took a break from 3:00 p.m. to 3:15 p.m.; however, the employee did not come out of the hole for a break which was not uncommon for him to do so. The employee's supervisor went to check on him inside the hole and noticed a burn on the side of the employee's face. The inside of the hole was not wet and there was a blower approximately 4 feet away blowing directly on him but the employee was electrocuted.
