An accident that resulted in one fatality occurred on Lease OCS-G 05953, Platform JA, PN Block 969, leased by Peregrine in the Gulf of Mexico, offshore the State of Texas on January 19, 2008, at approximately 0930 hours. Peregrine had hired WGPS as the production contract operator. On Saturday, January 19, 2008, at approximately 0849 hours, two production hands were flown by helicopter from Lease OCS-G 05953, Platform A, PN Block 975 to Lease OSC-G 05963, Platform JA, PN Block 969 to perform maintenance to the facility. PN 969 had been shut in for five days due to what was suspected to be a tripped ESD station near the boat landing. Weather conditions had previously prevented WGPS personnel from boarding the facility. The WGPS Employee began working on the ESD station at a level approximately 10 feet above the boat landing. At approximately 0930 hours the OSW felt a large wave hit the platform and looked to see if the WGPS Employee was okay. He noticed that the WGPS Employee was missing but soon spotted him in the water on the south side of the platform. The OSW threw a life ring and life vest, which landed within 5 to 15 feet of the WGPS Employee. Neither was reached by the WGPS Employee.
