Analyses of accidents in drilling indicates that most of them is due to incorrect application of methods of work.

When doing work often violate the existing rules of safety. This is due to poor or instruction, or the correct organization of labor, or lack of technical supervision of engineers and technicians.

significant number of accidents due to the fact that the conduct is applied defective tools and equipment, do not use protective equipment not used safety devices and small-scale mechanization to facilitate the work and prevent hazards that arise during the works.

To minimize injuries, need highly qualified workers, knowledge or technological features drilling, purpose, structure and rules of operation of equipment and machinery, proper and safe methods of work and high level of technical supervision by the supervisor.

Improving work organization, mechanization of heavy and labor-intensive work, streamlining processes, introducing new, more sophisticated types of equipment, machinery and tools - key areas for improving productivity and creating a healthy and safe work environment for drilling companies.

in recent years made significant progress in creating a safe working environment in drilling due to the introduction of new equipment, pneumatic control systems, equipment design and manufacture of test, recording, tail and other equipment of many kinds.

further introduction of new equipment, automation and mechanization of technological processes of drilling play a significant role in reducing injuries.

in drilling oil and gas wells a significant number of accidents occurs in the operation of equipment.

correct installation and timely review of equipment and care for it creates conditions for further safety. Therefore, before starting work again mounted drilling rig to check the completeness of its devices and devices with safety elements of mechanization, equipment and spare capacity.

safety work will be ensured if the drilling tools and equipment will conform to the standards and safety regulations.
