  • Gravity is a bitch.

  • что то я не понял??уронили типа колону?бурильщику лом в задницу тогда за то что клин не поставил

  • I bet it was tesco, they ain't worth a fuck

  • Tooo fast, I guess. Anyone knows what a running tool is called in Spanish?

  • hey buddy????? here, hold this for a minute, ill be right back. hahahahahaha

  • I was thinking to myself, 'Wow they run it fast"... then saw the top of the pipe fly past. Oops!

  • someone is goin' fishing...

  • SLIPS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! SET THE SLIPS WORM WTH

    ROFL get your hook worm we're goin fishin

  • @briangaylortoolyman Set the slips? They dropped from the slips.

  • @briangaylortoolyman Oh I was thinking you thought setting the slips would save the string, I see what you were saying now, like Oh dude did you forget to set the slips.

  • set slips? no? ok open em up!

  • gone fishin' anyone?

  • so what exactly happened? like how does something like this occur

  • Ha haaaa i can see the OIM's asshole tweeking as it fuck off through the floor lol

  • WE'RE ON BOTTOM!!! (Slams the company man's door)

  • @snubb76 Goddamn, I haven't laughed that hard in a while. I'll admit me bein' tired as fuck added to it, but it's a hell of a lot easier to laugh when you're not one o' the poor fucks what done it. Half the rigs I was on back in the 90's, the company men handled all such events by A) closing the smoking area & B) calling for an extra daily all-hands safety meeting.

  • i wonder if it was the casing crew that screwed up or the driller and if it was the driller then he shouldn't be acting like a damn worm so git your head out of your ass lol.....

  • That sucked...Did they fish it out?...

  • hope that wasnt tesco!

  • hope that want teco casers! lol

  • haha. fuckin casing crews...

  • I've been working on offshore drilling rigs for 30 years and 99% of the workforce are criminals, drug-dealers, rapists and bigamists (not you, Gypsy, obviously)

  • @LowProfileDD I was selling booze at school when I was 13, so bootlegger should go in that list as well.

    I like the lowprofile name. i presume its because you can be offshore 2 weeks and the Co man will still ask " who is that" as you pass him in the coridor. I was allways impressed by those guys who implemented the stealth technology while offshore. They never got run off!.

  • @LowProfileDD thats not...............ummmm yeaaaa. your probly right on that one. but at least we dont sell crack to niggers. haha 

  • @LowProfileDD not very likley, I have 6yrs exp onshore and can't even leasehand cause I lost my DL.

  • @LowProfileDD Not too reassuring mate, your whole industry is already pretty suspect, bunch of incompetent cowboys, not the way to keep this planet running, dunnno how many other planets you plan to destroy, but we're kinda sick of cowboys fraccing this one.

  • @LowProfileDD so which one are you, a drug dealer, a rapist or a bigamist?

  • Im not in anyone of your categories. I bet your just a broke asshole thats jealous of anyone with a career. and money. keep staying positive.

  • Im not in anyone of your categories. I bet your just a broke asshole thats jealous of anyone with a career. and money. keep staying positive. be you didnt get past roustabout, hope you enjoyed all the rigging youve done all your life asshole

  • Soooooooo, how DO they fish that out?

  • @assmunch1 they spear into it and trip back out.

  • I didn't expect such final :)

  • oh fuck! bet it was quite around the dinner table that nite.

  • Hope that wasn't rental pipe, it's alright though, they will call out someone from Tetra to fish it out :)

  • I find this vaguely erotic.

  • I'm not sure what i was looking at? did they lose a pipe that is supposed to stay connected?

  • Most of the guys i work with are criminals from england living in thailand they would buy cars on finance in UK then ship the cars to thailand and run off without paying.

    Most of them are drug dealers, thugs, and criminals working in this industry. You will have to be street smart to work in this environment.

  • @AustraIianGuy

    God everyone I work with has a nice family and a settled family life and the 2 on 4 off schedule suits that fine. Everyone is drug tested and no booze is allowed even the day before you catch the chopper. Most people are educated to graduate level and have made a long career out of working offshore.

    I presume you must have slack laws that allow this type to creep into the industry where you are. Certainly not like you have it here in Norway.

  • @kernowgypsy

    Australia on to breathelizer on the day you fly out but during work these fuckers are popping speed and shit its fucking scary to work in Australia.

  • @kernowgypsy

    Australia wont do urine tests and they for some reasons dont do criminal check on these fucking drug dealers.

  • @kernowgypsy

    The best Oil rig to work for is Diamond Offshore. They are the safest and we don't have drug addicts or dealers living on our rigs.

  • @kernowgypsy the worse drilling out fits are Trans Ocean and Seadrill as well as Stena Drilling. These 3 companies seem to attract alot of cowboys, drug addicts, drug dealers, criminals, fraudsters, and alcoholics.

  • @AustraIianGuy  Well I am glad we agree then. Looks like the criminality of the Austrailians and the Brits are keeping it in the family, since Australia was the British Penal colony in years past. LOL.

  • Offshore workers are mostly criminals. Employment companies refused to do criminal checks because they need rough criminals to be rough necks.

  • Hahahhahahahhahaha must be a good bunch of driling team wtf was the Tool pusher thinking hahahahaha or some dumb ass stupoid company man? Looks like one of those punk ass drilling team from TransOcean or SeaDrill.

  • Haha....

    Casing spear please......

  • So what do you guys need to have to work offshore? I've studied power engineering (boiler operations) in the past, don't suppose yall run boilers out there? :<

  • @SeverEnergia you need a HUET ticket and some bullshit on your cv

  • @AustraIianGuy the HUET is some kind of offshore certificate thing? I assume its like H2S or Confined Space Entry.

  • @SeverEnergia It's a Helicopter Underwater Escape Training just incase the helicopter crashes into water.

    Most of the time if it does you chances of surviving is 0: first you'll die from injuries, if not you will drown because the cunts in the helicopters will panic and either punch or kick you to death then drown under water before you cuold escape.

    If water is freezing could you will die from shock and then drown if not from hypertermia.

  • @SeverEnergia no one has ever escaped helicopter crashes with their life.

    Even the very best SAS died this way and recently 11 offshore workers died in the north seas from similar crash.

  • @AustraIianGuy of course people have survived helicopter crashes, a few weeks after the north sea one u mentioned another chopper went down coming back to aberdeen and they all survived.

  • reckon it corkscrewed when it hit bottom?

  • What kind of well is this? Why isn't there a BOP or Chirstmas Tree (assuming casing could be run through a Christmas Tree)

  • @BSMEPilot

    must have dry trees

  • Comment removed

  • @austin1989us Just started thinking about this and I'm still confused. Wouldn't 18.5" casing be run during the early stages of a well (as that's pretty large diameter pipe). I wouldn't think the BOP would have replaced by a wet or dry tree yet. I also wouldn't think this to be a workover. Are there dry BOP's too?

  • @BSMEPilot 18.5" casing is medium sized. I've seen 36" casing before. If the designer/owner/operator had dry trees, the BOPs would be on the the surface too.

  • @austin1989us what would happen if the BOP fell down as well?

  • @BSMEPilot also, casing/pipe/risers can all be run through BOPs

  • @austin1989us Right, I knew you ran everything through the BOP during drilling/workovers. I also knew you could run things like production tubing through certain trees in a workover. Didn't realize they had surface BOP's (offshore). I just took an petroleum engineering course that very generally goes over some upstream stuff so I'm still learning.  Thanks austin...

  • @BSMEPilot no prob...i just picked up alot of this stuff recently too. i'm in my senior year of mechanical engr. and i've done 2 internships with oceaneering and 1 with chevron.

  • @austin1989us i think HalyBurton forgot to cement the well :)

  • @austin1989us what do you mean by dry trees? sorry i am not a driller just a roustabout

  • they forget to lock into pipe while hold for other pipe to screw in other pipe. ..

  • that is a "fuck me" moment right there....lol

  • @rcmoore604 cuz "oops" just doesn't say enough :)

  • I have also seen everything from drill bits, drill collars, drill pipe, casing and tubing to perforating guns and logging tools dropped down hole. Sometimes this stuff can be fished out and sometimes it cant be fished out. I know of 15 well sites where the above named items are still in the wells. Several of the wells are still producing oil and gas after 30 years but most were cemented closed, the rig skidded (moved) over 30 feet and a new well drilled.

  • @Steelman1982 i dont know anything about driillls . can you explain to me how they retrieve the casing.s ?

  • @mjmoto72 They don't retrieve the casing. Casing is cemented in place for wellbore stability and to isolate certain zones i.e. fresh water zones (or any other zones that you don't want to produce from). When the well is done producing/injecting, the well is abandoned by filling the hole/casing with layers of cement and mud. That is a very general understanding of casing and the adandonment of it. Some casing that isn't cemented in place are retrieved, but it's probably not going to be reused.

  • The oilfield has been eat plum-up with worms for the past 30 years. Yep! Run the wormy driller and his crews asses off and get the fishing tools and fish the casing back out of the hole and start over again with a new string of pipe. ALL the casing and tubing that I have seen that was dropped down the well, every bit of it was bent all to hell and looked like a corkscrew after it was fished from the well.

  • @Steelman1982 how big is the well ? it looks like those casing where moving around laterally quit a bit. ?

  • woops can someone get another 18.5" out the drill box i accidentally dropped one hehe. How did it happen, excuse my ignorance to Rig Drilling. :)

  • Yes.. Time to fish... : ( But it happens...

  • So can someone tell me what happens after something like this occurs?? To me it seems like you would be screwed as it would be impossible to retrieve that pipe for reattachment....right??or am I ignorant

  • OH shit oops is exactly right makes my dropping the casing in my water well trivial.

  • That Sucks!

  • yeah alacazam. now you see-now you dont. I'd loved to of seen their faces!!

  • hahahaha

  • time to fish!

  • I know nothing about drilling, but I can tell someones ass is in big trouble.

  • Comment removed

  • OEPS !!!!!

  • :-O

  • They can get that, only thing that makes it hard --- if it corkscrews when it hits bottom

  • That's what the fishing tool industry is for.

  • I don't think that's the kinda fishing they wanna be doin' in that water!

  • Comment removed

  • a long day just got longer......good times

  • No problem... Just whipstock around it and get to TD. Uh... waitaminit, that was surface casing... CRAP!

  • I dropped casing 12m the other day, doh!!!

  • chiaoooo.....

  • who ever dropped that string of pipe was not there to help get it out,i bet! His azz was gone!

  • @roughnecknight51 skidded instantly

  • @spiderpig85 Hey spider just run the string,tag,make it up and cement the son of a bitch!!!!LOLOL

  • break out the bait and tackle, hahah

  • collar after collar passes lmao then whoops where'd she go??

  • Cement 'er where she sits.

  • lets go fishing

  • Thanks for the advice :)

  • damn, glad i'm just a geotech exploration driller and have only lost about 35 feet of 6.5" casing, once...

  • dumb

  • have fun fishing

  • lets call 'er good boys :D

  • I'd like to see the look on the drillers face after that casing fell through the table! lol

  • Blame the leasehand

  • did it die?

  • been there, done that

  • Golly,... that's naaasssty.

    I guess the tool pusher was a little upset that day??

  • -went down and entered box with regular casingjoint while waiting for Red Baron.

    Up and running in short time. Out with poor quality casing, and in with new.

  • Entered box with regular casing jnt, as in you ran in and torqued up to the loose pin end with another jnt? That's like hitting the needle on a haystack dont u think?

  • @xorro83 not if the two can't go by each other ,it can be done.

  • What is the procedure after that happens?

  • Too bad. Looks like surface casing. Whipstock?

  • Oh crap!

  • forgot the slips or what

  • Probably some pished jock took his eye off the ball - ohh fuck aye!

  • Reckon it cork screwed when it hit the bottom of the hole?

  • wow thats lame fishing for that would have sucked.

  • haha bye bye

  • I never get tired of watching this

  • Fuck tryna fish for that fucker.

    Prob cost some poor cunt his job ay?

  • fish fish fish!!!! a big fishhh they must run an overshot? alot of job to do!!!

  • can anybody tell me how they made this video from down the hole thats pretty cool and i was just wonderin i have been roughnecking for about a year but i aint seen nothin like it

  • well it's an off-shore drilling site and the photo thing is just recording underwater , and if u asked how they gonna fix what just happened , the answer is going fishing , expression they use when they want to get lost pipe out or connect it again.

  • Lets go fishing! rofl

  • Ouch... that's going to cost a few bob.

  • has it ever came to a point you throught you was out of a job lol you all need any help

  • LOLOLOLOL! NICE SETUP!

  • 21 seconds at about 30 feet per second approx 630 feet of casing falls to the bottom of the hole WOW that's someones paycheck for 3 months OUCH

  • thats deep

  • im not getting the pump !!

  • that one way to hit bottom

  • So how man got skidded for that unfortunate fuck up???? That was hilarious!!!

  • Are ya'll short handed?

  • "Anybody got any REAALLY long-nose pliers and a snorkel?"

  • Can you imagine making the call to the head office or telling the company man...

  • Shit myself laughing, poor bastards.

  • Don't laugh..

    you never know on an drilling rig what might happen to you...

    God save us all from mishaps.

  • @spidersunshines true bro you're right i have stopped laughing because our lives are always in danger 24/7 till we leave the rig and arrive safely home.

  • well i got one piece of advice for ya chooky, hope youve got a good mopp/sweeping hand coz youll be doing alot of it...

  • OMG, I didnt read the comments and had to laugh when it happened. I'm starting as a greenhorn Rousty in January. I sure hope I dont cause a f%^k up like that!!!

  • good luck fishin' for that...

  • oh shit someone fucked up damn glad it wasnt me,,, hard time to get on a rig after that ouch ,,,

  • good >)

  • Is there any way they can recover that rig?

    Maybe send down a strong electromagnet on a cable?

  • they will have to fish for it.

  • have fun fishing that!

  • hahaha poor bastards!!!!!!

  • Can anybody explain me waht happed here?

  • They droped the casing? Slips didnt hold, elevators got opened too soon, something like that

  • they where drilling to find some oil of something like that, I think my dad watched it when it happend since he had it on his computer and said that he was there when it happend...

    and everyone in that crew was like speachless because they had worked so hard and so long to get it done... XD

    so yh, poor people ;D

  • did they get their casing back?

  • the company man isn't gonna be to excited about that!

  • meant to put too*

  • Hi! i showed this to my dad. he works in the oil field. he sayed he feels sorry for the crew. what is fshing?

  • fishing is the process when they put a tool down the hole and try to "catch" what they dropped and to pull it out...

  • I can see the roughneck with the bit supposed to be attached in his hand, and a surprised look on his face! :0 hee hee.

  • and a free early trip back home !

  • The driller gets his ass chewed on for a while then they start fishing. The pipe could't have been completely filled or else it would have gone down way faster. Time to go fishing...

  • Comment removed

  • that dont look cheap!

  • LMAO!!!

  • hahahaha, that has to be the best way to do it!

  • I was the mudlogger on shift when that happened.. the driller just said "oops" and then radio silence.... it was the Bideford Dolphin.

  • And you suck balls as well Jim!!

  • you guys are deadly

  • time to get fishing!lol

  • They couldn't have had much casing weight. That or the pipe wasn't full of mud. You have to reach a certain weight before top elevators release without bottom slips latched. Someone released bottom slips before top slips were released. Roughly about 11 joints before its safe. So those 3 stands went to the bottom....what? About 1000 ft maybe for 18 1/2' casing?

  • I remember that one...

    I was on another rig working for the same oil company when that happened, and kept an eye on the daily updates. IIRC it took them ony 22 hours until they were back to running casing at the same point. No big deal. :)

  • Thats real time man...and yeah, that would be a bitch to get out...im not sure they would either considering it might have dipped down quite a bit after it went under

  • that must have beed a franks casing crew job lol time to order better slips

  • How in the hell does it run that fast. Gravity? I work const. offshore but this is something new to me. tell me that not real time!

  • teel the rig boat to bring some more casing. LOL

  • oh, great running time :) wish the cementing job was done in no time to !!!

  • Ok, who got the big magnet!

  • Hahahaha now let me see them Fishing that one out...

    Crane op whip ya boys into shape... the driller has messed up a tad...

    needs you to get some fishing gear from the heavy tool store?

  • oops!

  • noooooooooooooo!

  • hate to get the blame for that

  • im sure i checked the latch

  • Dolphin rig at Oseberg field in norweagian sector.
