Objective

The objectives of the Digital T-BOSIET training are that learners will be able to: 1. 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. 2. Identify key offshore related safety regulations and explain the basic safety management concepts. 3. 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. 4. Demonstrate sea survival and first aid techniques. 5. Demonstrate that they can effectively use basic firefighting equipment, and practise self-rescue techniques in low visibility situations, including smoke-filled areas.

Target Group

Digital T-BOSIET training is to meet the initial offshore safety and emergency response training requirements for personnel new (or returning) to the offshore oil and gas industry who choose to complete the underpinning knowledge of the T-BOSIET programme via the T-BOSIET online programme prior to attending an OPITO approved training centre to be formally assessed against all learning outcomes.

Examination

To achieve the T-BOSIET training, the learners will need to complete the 4 mandatory T-BOSIET units.
