In 2001, Step Change in Safety published the ‘Best Practice Guide to Manriding Safety’. This document was developed to provide the industry with concise guidance for manriding operations in Derricks, Masts, and Moonpool areas using best practice information in one consolidated document that could be easily referenced as and when required.

For clarity, manriding is defined as “the raising/lowering of a person using a certified manriding winch, with the person wearing an approved full body harness that is directly connected to a hoist with a triple action carabiner.”

With technology, equipment, and techniques improving and evolving it has become necessary to review this guidance and amend the contents to ensure that it remains the leading reference document for all manriding operations and that it continues to meet the needs of the oil and gas industry.

It is recognized within the oil and gas industry, that manriding may be the most suitable form of access for certain working at height activities or tasks. Properly planned, using appropriately maintained and certified equipment operated by competent people, manriding can be carried out safely through the stringent application of appropriate controls.
