Course Description

The first part of this course covers the Basic Safety Induction and Emergency Training (BOSIET) requirements for new entrants to the offshore oil and gas industry in the UK sector, for which successful delegates will receive an OPITO approved BOSIET certificate. Information about the BOSIET course|.

The Mutual Recognition of Basic & Refresher Safety and Emergency Preparedness Training between Oil & Gas UK, OLF (Norway), NSOC-D (Denmark) and NOGEPA (Netherlands) which came into effect in November 2007 and was revised in January 2011 is designed to harmonise offshore survival training standards within Europe. For personnel intending to work in the European sectors of the offshore oil industry this course will satisfy the offshore survival training requirements within those sectors.

This agreement indicates an additional module (to UK BOSIET) involving the practical use of a vertical Escape Chute will satisfy the minimum training requirements for all four signatories. On completion of this additional module delegates will be issued with the 'European Safety Training - Supplementary Module (to UK BOSIET) certificate' (BOSSM) - recognised for offshore personnel working in all sectors of the North Sea.

Note (For delegates intending to work in the UK sector of the North Sea):

MIST (Minimum Industry Safety Training); it is anticipated that this course will become a requirement for all new entrants to the UK Offshore Oil & Gas Industry. The requirement will apply to those who have a BOSIET but haven’t yet been offshore as well as to those who haven’t done the BOSIET course.

Book this course with OPITO approved MIST (Minium Industry Safety Training) course to avail a discounted course fee.
