Abstract: At approximately 1:30 p.m. on June 15, 1993, an accident occurred at the Chevron Oil Lease well #341-31R, McKittrick, CA. During rigging up operations, Employee #1 fell approximately 15 feet from the fingers of the rig #6 monkey board. Employee #1 was climbing the fingers when the rope securing the fingers from movement broke. This caused the fingers to swing horizontally approximately 90 degrees.
