Narrative

A drill crew was doing a wet trip. The helper was using a bucket to prevent the mud from spraying out of the pipe. The bucket was positioned on the pipe that was hanging in the elevators. As the helper pushed the rod back to direct the mud away, he cut his arm on the pipe that was still in the foot clamps.
