Description
This course is to introduce the fundamental safety elements of the offshore oil & gas industry to new starts, giving an appreciation of the potential hazards and controls that might be encountered by personnel offshore. Each unit has been designed to focus the learners’ attention on their personal responsibility for safety thus influencing their behaviour and attitude towards their co-workers, the installation and the environment.
Learning Objectives
- Major Accident Hazards
- Workplace Hazards and Personal Safety
- Risk Management
- Control of Work
- Helicopter Safety
Prerequisites
There are no entry requirements.
However, if working offshore, it is expected that this programme will be taken after the OPITO approved BOSIET course so Centres can build on knowledge previously attained. However, if this is not the case then the BOSIET course will be required prior to travelling offshore and the learner will receive some reinforcement of knowledge previously gained.
There are no specific medical requirements, although personnel must have a current offshore medical certificate before being allowed to work offshore. No offshore medical certificate is required before OPITO MIST.
