Title: THE BHN DISASTER

THE BHN DISASTER
HSEQ THE BHN DISASTER

THE BHN DISASTER
  • 355 employees rescued, 13 missing the worst
    accident in the history of ONGC
  • Death toll up to 12 in Bombay High fire
  • In terms of property loss, this has been the most
    serious accident in ONGC history.
  • A person on board an MSV had broken his finger
    and needed medical attention.
  • Attempting to transfer this galley crewman on the
    ship (MSV) to the platform in order to receive
    medical attention (which was available on the
    platform), the ship approached the platform ,
    lost control and drifted and collided with the
    platform. All available information indicates
    that this collision resulted in serious oil
    leakage and fire, which spread rapidly
  • These multipurpose support vessels are highly
    sophisticated computerised ships, equipped to
    deal with all sorts of emergencies. They have
    dynamic positioning systems and it is difficult
    to say what went wrong, here.

  • There were 227 people on the Bombay High
    platform, while there were 84 people on board
    Samudra Suraksha(MSV) and 73 people on Noble
    Charlie Yester, a privately-owned drilling rig,
    which also had to be abandoned. The platform was
    lost in less than two hours, while Samudra
    Suraksha though afloat is still on fire and will
    be out of service. There were about 384 people in
    all these places and 355 have been rescued.
  • Of the 12 persons who died, six are ONGC
    personnel (five officers and one worker) one
    person is from SCI (which contracts the ships to
    ONGC), and one from the rig Charlie Yester.

  • Some photos taken from Transocean's jackup
    drilling rig "Randolph Yost" that was jacked up
    very close to the Bombay High North (BHN)
    platform and the Noble "Charlie Yester" jackup.
  • Both the BHN and the "Charlie Yester" were
    completely destroyed and melted into the water.
  • The dive support / multi use vessel "Sagar
    Surakshas" that is on fire is the vessel that
    started the whole chain of diasterous events by
    making contact in heavy seas with the BHN
    production and processing platform
  • Believe it or not, there were 6 divers in the
    decompression chamber onboard the dive support
    vessel at the time the vessel was totally
    abandoned - miraculously they lived and were
    rescued the day after these photos were taken.
