Investigation Summary
Employee #1 was attempting to use an offside cathead spinning winch to make a lift from the ground to the drilling rig floor when he became entangled in the rope used on the smooth spinning spool. He was caught on the cathead by the hand and was spun around the spool several times. When the driller stopped the cathead, Employee #1's body had been thrown out on the rig floor minus an arm and a leg. He was killed instantly.
