IADC issues new safety alerts

Posted on 29 October 2009

 IADC has issued three new safety alerts citing potential rigfloor dangers and how each could have been mitigated. Each safety alert provides a description of the incident, the cause, and how it could have been avoided.

The latest safety alerts are:

•    Near miss – damaged man-riding winch
•    Improper use of drill pipe spinner results in an MTO (medical treatment only)
•    Medical treatment only (MTO): Struck by the tongs

If your company experiences an accident, near miss, MTO, or other incident, please let IADC publish this. It could save a life!

All company and personal references are removed, so there are no worries about adverse publicity. IADC’s aim is to help the industry improve its HSE practices.

Go to www.iadc.org/alerts.htm to review or submit alerts.
