An employee was installing a safety cable on a flowline during a drilling operation. A forklift operator manipulated the boom to allow some slack in the strap to set the flowline box in the flowline trough. The employee had his hands on the strap to manipulate the box and set it down in the flowline trough. His left foot was forward while attempting to gain leverage when the flowline box shifted and struck his left foot and ankle area, resulting in a laceration to the top of his foot requiring hospitalization.
