height of the fingerboard

I thought at first that "peine" was pipe rack, but I believe that's the changuero; see discussion comment in this question:

I think "peine" is the Mexican term.

"FINGERBOARD. DEDO. PEINE: Serie de tubos paralelos que soportan la parte superior de las lingadas en la torre o el mástil."

"Peine – la plataforma de trabajo aproximadamente a la mitad de la altura de la torre de perforación o mástil que utilice el operario de torre o chango para almacenar tuberías de perforación y lastra barrenas en viajes fuera del agujero, de modo ordenado."
https://www.slideshare.net/belubel83/16-glosario

Compare the above with this (both are Schlumberger):

"fingerboard
1. n. [Drilling]
The working platform approximately halfway up the derrick or mast in which the derrickman stores drillpipe and drill collars in an orderly fashion during trips out of the hole. The entire platform consists of a small section from which the derrickman works (called the monkeyboard), and several steel fingers with slots between them that keep the tops of the drillpipe in place."

"fingerboard, astillero de torre, (Ar) plataforma de enganche, (Mé) peine"
