Offshore Safety Awareness

Awareness training for people about to go offshore for the first time or after a long break: new crew, service company hands, vendors and visitors to platforms, jack-ups, semi-submersibles, drillships and FPSOs. It follows a trip from check-in and the helicopter flight to induction, alarms and muster, fire and gas, the permit to work, deck hazards, life in the accommodation and the journey home. It is preparation only: it is not OPITO BOSIET, FOET, HUET or MIST, nor any other accredited offshore survival or induction certificate, awards none and replaces none, and the practical training (helicopter underwater escape, sea survival, firefighting) must be done in person at an approved centre.
