Narrative

An employee was stenciling a piece of 4" 30' drill pipe inside a racking system. A second pipe was kicked over onto the racking system and rolled down the table, striking the employee from behind. This caused the employee's face to impact the stationary pipe in front of him that he was stenciling. He sustained a fractured jaw.
