The platform that supports the derrickman when tripping pipe is called the __________.
• Role and location of the derrickman on a drilling rig • Difference between pipe handling areas and general deck areas • Common names for elevated work platforms on derricks
• Think about where the derrickman normally works when stands in the derrick to guide or rack pipe during tripping operations. • Ask yourself which option names are associated with high, elevated positions versus main deck or lower structures. • Consider which terms are specifically linked to handling drill pipe versus more general rig structural parts.
• Identify which choice refers to a high, elevated platform rather than a deck at or near main deck level. • Eliminate any answers that are more related to structural support of the derrick than to where a person stands to work. • Verify which term is commonly used in drilling operations vocabulary for the derrickman’s work station.
