I know that story oh too well. Sorry to hear about it. Was this where you work? We lost a helo during my last deployment with no survivors unfortunately.

As if roughnecking and drilling wasn't dangerous enough.......

No, I work at a shore operation, we do not go offshore they bring the riser to us.

It happened about 50 miles or so to the northwest of us.
