Narrative

On June 1, 2017, at approximately 4:00 a.m., an employee was about to perform maintenance on an oil and gas down-hole mechanical setting tool. The employee picked up the 70 lb. setting tool to bump it on the ground and release the pressure. The tool was slippery from being covered with honey oil, and the employee's grip slipped. His right middle finger was then crushed and amputated by the setting tool.
