Objective

The aim is to complement initial and further offshore safety and emergency response training and assessment (i.e. T-BOSIET, T-HUET or T-FOET) for personnel travelling to an offshore Oil & Gas installation by helicopter, and when issued with CA-EBS. The objectives of the additional CA-EBS training delivered in addition to the T-BOSIET, T- HUET, T-FOET or OPITO BOSIET/FOET/HUET with CA- EBS programmes are to: • Ensure learners are familiar with the use of the CA-EBS • Ensure that learners understand their basic emergency response actions during a helicopter emergency using the CA-EBS

Target Group

Personnel travelling to an offshore oil and gas installation by helicopter who require additional training in a Compressed Air Emergency Breathing System (CA-EBS).
