    Basic Offshore Safety Induction & Emergency Training (T-BOSIET)

    Course Objective
    • The aims of the T - BOSIET are to introduce delegates to the specific safety issues and regimes relevant to offshore installations, and to equip them with the basic emergency response knowledge and skills for communicating to and from offshore installations by helicopter in tropical regions.
    The following points shall be discussed in the course:
    • Identify the generic hazards which are specific to offshore oil and gas installations, potential risks associated with those hazards, and how controls are put in place to eliminate or reduce risks.
    • Identify key offshore-related safety regulations and explain the basic safety management concepts.
    • Demonstrate, in a simulated environment, that they can use the safety equipment, and follow procedures in preparing for, and during helicopter emergencies – with particular focus on escaping from a helicopter following ditching.
    • Demonstrate sea survival and first aid techniques.
    • Demonstrate that they can effectively use basic firefighting equipment, and practice self-rescue techniques in low visibility situations, including smoke-filled areas.

    This program is designed to meet the initial onshore safety and emergency training requirements for personnel new to the offshore oil and gas industry in a tropical environment.

    • Module 1: Safety Induction
    • Module 2: Helicopter Safety and Escape
    • Module 3: Sea Survival and First Aid
    • Module 4: Firefighting and Self Rescue

    Prerequisite
    Training and/or assessment activities contained within this Standard may include physically demanding and potentially stressful elements. All personnel who participate in such activities must be physically and mentally capable of participating fully. Therefore, OPITO-approved training centers are required, as a minimum, to ensure that prior to participating in practical exercises the delegate:

    • Possesses a valid, current offshore medical certificate, OR
    • Possesses an employing company approved medical certificate equivalent to an offshore medical certificate,
    • Undergoes medical screening by completing an appropriate medical screening form provided by the OPITO-approved Centre (a list of medical conditions which must be included in a medical screening form is available from OPITO)
     Activities
    • This training program is designed to meet the initial offshore safety and emergency response training requirements for personnel new (or returning) to the offshore oil and gas industry who will be supplied with a compressed air emergency breathing system (CA-EBS) during offshore helicopter travel.
