      you must have these things in mind
      1. Have a long term mindset.
      2. Be willing to take *risk*.
      3. Be careful, if you're not spending to earn back, then stop spending.
      4. Never claim to know - Ask questions and it's best you work with an assistant.

      @justinneill5003 Рік тому +2

      The Alexander Kielland capsized in 1980, anyone up the derrick would’ve faced the nightmare you describe but the biggest problem wouldn’t be the harness, it would be the steel framework around you, that you’d have to wriggle clear of to avoid drowning. Not much chance, especially as you’d probably be knocked out by a lump of steel on the way down; but that was a semi-submersible, and one of the pontoons had collapsed. Less likely on a fixed platform like this.,That being said, I did 2 years on the Piper Alpha & one of my crewmates was still on it when it was destroyed. He jumped and made it but the biggest danger apparently wasn’t the impact of the water; it was the depth to which they plunged, and the struggle to then reach the surface, fully clothed, holding their breath. I’ve heard they saw the surface was glowing orange as they came up, and had to duck under again pretty quick. If you’ve ever stood on an oil platform & looked over the railings you’ll realise what it must have taken to jump, but with the steel grid melting under your feet, I guess there’s no time to think. RIP to those lives lost on the Piper 🙏

    I worked derricks in Kansas for 11 years. Drill over most of the western 2/3rds part of the state. The driller would run the blocks up fast enough but still had to think about crowning the blocks out on the crown. They were not triples but doubles. Sometimes there were anywhere from 50 to 85 stands in the derrick. Worked 8 hour shifts, sometimes having to pull doubles cause someone twisted off. We worked as fast as we could cause trip time was on our company, not the one who leased us out to drill a well. We worked 4 man crews. Driller. derrick hand. chain hand and backups. Yup, big rigs and offshore seems great but I got to go home every day and we always moved about every 8 to 10 days after the completion of the well. Never worked in the same place for longer than that. Change of scenery was nice. Just saying. Use to get stickers from our mud companies that supplied us with drilling mud to put on our bumpers saying "Oilfield trash and proud of it".

    This is what the derrick mans job has turned into. No challenge running 3.5 inch pipe at dead slow. When I broke out those first few trips out of the hole ate my lunch... totally dehydrated and cramping up. After a while it was a great upper body work out and we were getting "ringers" all the time. Whats a ringer? Some of you know... its when you don't miss a stand of pipe when going in the hole. Think its easy when its 10 below and the wind is gusting to 45 to 50 mph? Think its easy when using diesel based mud and everything gets greasy? Your toes feel like rocks, your beard and mustache are covered with ice... the heater doesn't work because its to cold out.... yeah... it was miserable at times... The oilfield made me understand what work is... and I am grateful for the experience. It is amazing how much energy and force is contained inside the Earth... it can make all of mans tools turn to junk if people don't stay on top of changing downhole conditions.

      I don’t know if I could work derricks now after watching this, back in the day ( 70’s and 80’s) being a Derrickman was totally different and you manhandeled the pipe, there was no stopping at the board unless you were latchin collars or heavyweight and for damn sure the elevators didn’t come to you! I just know that after round tripping 18,000 ft of 51/2 pipe and 10 inch collars you knew you had put in a good 12 hours.

    Wow that old man is as quick as a cat lol. Is that hoodie thingy they sometimes wear some type of fireproofing? I've watched videos of battleship gunners wearing similar apparel and always thought it was to protect them against flash fires.

      When I was roughnecking for Bawden on the Piper in the late 70s, the derrickman’s eyebrows got singed a couple of times when a strong wind in the wrong direction blew the flare through the Derrick. I’m guessing that’s why this guy has fire protection. In the seventies we didn’t have it, the derrickman wore the same gear as the rest of us. There was no CCTV up there either. It was a tough job up there but our derrickman liked it because he was out of earshot from the driller (who was a “Grade A” Twat.)
