BTW - did you know that you are supposed to wear cotton under the FRP?


Well aware of this rule. One of my guys was not too happy over the summer when I told him that he couldn't wear his Under Armor briefs. This is actually what got me thinking about needing an FR coat.

We will be close enough to touch, and will even briefly have to touch the well head. Most of my work out there is data collection for a GHG inventory project. So I'm not particularly worried about causing the ignition myself.

I guess partly my concern isn't as much of a safety concern as it is with not being in compliance with the client. Then again, I don't really want to be dead wrong either.

I think that the outer most layer needs to be FR... so if you are wearing a jacket, it needs to be FR. My experience is from refinery setting, not a rig so take it FWIW.
