A drilling rig floorman, also known as a floorhand, is an essential crew member responsible for supporting drilling operations. Their duties include handling equipment, operating tongs and slips, and assisting with pipe connections during tripping operations. They maintain and clean the drill floor, ensuring it is safe and free of hazards, and help assemble, disassemble, and repair drilling components. Floormen also operate mud circulation systems, clean mud tanks, and monitor mud flow. Safety is a key aspect of their role, requiring strict adherence to health, safety, and environmental protocols while wearing proper personal protective equipment (PPE). They participate in safety meetings, emergency drills, and respond to equipment failures or well-control emergencies. Floormen also perform maintenance tasks, such as lubricating machinery, inspecting tools, and ensuring all equipment is in working order. Physical fitness, mechanical aptitude, and teamwork are critical for this demanding job. As an entry-level role, it provides valuable experience for career progression to positions like derrickman, driller, or rig supervisor in the oil and gas industry.
