305-metric-ton Blowout Preventer Falls
This video presents footage of a fatal shipyard accident involving two shipboard cranes that were working in tandem to lower a 305-metric-ton blowout preventer. In the video, a large white structure is visible, with a red structure beneath it. The white structure is the blowout preventer; the red structure is its stand. Once the blowout preventer is lowered into the hold of the vessel, the stand would be welded to the deck to secure it during transit. The personnel underneath the suspended load. The employee’s legs were severed below his knees. He did not survive the injury. |
