Someone sent this to us:
Transocean Honor had a big accident the other day. The rig blacked out but their drawworks failed and their top drive system fell to the rig floor
What’s the word?
Transocean Honor is working in Angola for Chevron.
anyone hurt? any environmental impact?

The uncontrolled descent was caused by a software issue. The bails went through the rotary, the TDS descended and laid on the rig floor, and the block continued its descent until it hit the TDS. The well was secured and muster was taken, no environmental, no injuries.
