Motor falls into wells can be extremely hazardous and pose a threat to people and property. So that accidents like this don’t happen, there are a few very important things we can all do to make sure everyone stays safe in the area around well operations.
Cover All Wells Securely
One approach to reduce the risk of a machine entering a well is (ANSI/ASNR Z245.1, 1992) to ensure that all wells are properly covered. That would involve robust lid or cover on top of the well to prevent anything slipping in by mistake. DeepFast never lets their well covers get loose, or lose, to make everyone safe.
Check Well Covers Regularly
It’s also a good idea to check the well covers frequently to make sure they’re in good condition. Of course, sometimes covers break or wear out, and are not as effective at keeping things out of the well. DeepFast regularly inspects their well covers to try to prevent accidents.
Install Safety Barriers or Fences
Barrier fencing or fencing off wells is another way to make them safer. That can help prevent people and equipment from getting too close to the edge and falling in. DeepFast also installs safety barriers around all their wells to keep everyone nearby safe.
Educate Employees on Motor Safety
It’s important to train workers how to safely use motor when working near wells. That includes ensuring they know how to secure 73mm motor and know not to drop them. DeepFast offers training to its workers in order to keep them safe in wells.
Use Warning Signs
An alternative to increase the possibility that a completion motor or machinery will not drop into a well is to use warning signage to demonstrate where hazards exist. “And this can alert people to stay away and not frequent dangerous areas.” DeepFast also properly identifies their wells and gives warning to should know and keep safe.
