The Oil Industry in India is more than 100 years old. Because of various collaboration
agreements, a variety of international codes, standards and practices have been in vogue.
Standardisation in design philosophies and operating and maintenance practices at a
national level was hardly in existence. This coupled with feed back from some serious
accidents that occurred in the recent past in India and abroad, emphasised the need for
the industry to review the existing state of art in designing, operating and maintaining oil
and gas installations.
With this in view, the Ministry of Petroleum and Natural Gas in 1986 constituted a Safety
Council assisted by the Oil Industry Safety Directorate(OISD) staffed from within the
industry in formulating and implementing a series of self regulatory measures aimed at
removing obsolescence, standardising and upgrading the existing standards to ensure
safe operations. Accordingly, OISD constituted a number of functional committees of
experts nominated from the industry to draw up standards and guidelines on various
subjects.
The present standard on " Derrick Floor Operation " (Onshore Drilling / Workover rigs)was
prepared by the Functional Committee on " Derrick Floor Operation (Onshore Drilling /
Workover rigs) This document is based on the accumulated knowledge and experience of
industry members and the various national and international codes and practices.
This standard is meant to be used as supplement and not as a replacement for existing
codes and practices.
It is hoped that provisions of this standard if implemented objectively, may go a long way to
improve the safety and reduce accidents in Oil and Gas Industry. Users are cautioned that
no standard can be a substitute for the judgement of responsible and experienced
Engineers.
Suggestions are invited from the users after it is put into practice to improve the document
further. Suggestions for amendments to this document should be addressed to the
Coordinator, Committee on " Derrick Floor Operation (Onshore Drilling / Workover rigs),
This standard in no way supercedes the statutory requirements of bodies like DGMS, CCE
or any other Government Body which must be followed as applicable.

General Inspections
Field inspection of hoisting equipment
in an operating condition , should be
done by a crew or supervisor as
elaborated in inspection schedule of
category I. Persons inspecting hoisting
equipment on a daily basis, should look
for cracks, loose fitting connections or
fasteners, elongation of parts and any
sign, excessive wear or overloading.
Any equipment found to show cracks,
excessive wear etc. should be
removed from service immediately.
The weekly inspection is to be carried
out as stated in Category II Inspection
(Refer Inspection and Maintenance
schedule). The oil and grease be
removed from surfaces to be inspected
(Use detergents if necessary). Paint
should be removed from high stress
areas.
The annual inspection is to be carried
out as per Category III inspection .In
this type of inspection, it involves
disassembly
to
access
specific
components.
Disassembly Inspection
Equipment should be taken to a suitably
equipped facility and all parts checked
for excessive wear, cracks, flaws etc.
Visual and non-destructive techniques
(NDT) are used to identify the worn
part.
