Title	Possible Overexposure Event During Radiography in Gulf of Mexico
Event Description	Oceaneering International received a report from Landauer that two of their radiographers had May badge exposures of 5467 millirem and 5549 millirem (deep dose) respectively. The radiographers had been working on a pipe laying barge about 40 miles off the coast of Louisiana during the month of May when these potential overexposures occurred. Oceaneering International immediately stopped work of one of the radiographers. The other radiographer had already stopped working due to a personal injury. Interviews with the radiographers indicated that both individuals had removed their shirts during work on a hot day with their exposure badges still attached to the shirts The shirts could have been placed in a location that was near the radiography work and picked up the exposure. Both radiographers had self-reading dosimetry that was read and logged daily. The total May exposures logged on the self-reading dosimeters were 126 millirem and 147 millirem respectively. Oceaneering International is licensed under an Agreement State license from the State of Louisiana. This event has already been reported to the State of Louisiana and is under investigation by the State (See Agreement State Report EN#43481). However, after the RSO for Oceaneering International had discussions with NRC Region IV (Leonardi) about this event, the RSO decided to report the event to the Operations Center since the event occurred offshore and is under NRC jurisdiction at the time it occurred.
