This program is designed to provide delegates with a basic understanding of the hazards associated with helicopter transport whether landing on a Helideck, on a Ship or on an Offshore Installation. Safety and Survival equipment, both passenger issued and on the helicopter are reviewed as well as procedures for preparing to ditch, abandonment on the surface and underwater escape exercises using the UETS-HUET.

PROGRAM CONTENT

Areas of study will include the following:

Helicopter Safety & Escape:

• Offshore helicopter hazards
• Personnel and aircraft survival equipment
• Procedures to prepare for ditching
• Helicopter abandonment & underwater egress procedures
• Helicopter Underwater Escape Training (HUET) using the Underwater Egress Training Simulators(UETS)

• Abandonment theory and practical sea survival training.
• Actions for mustering and boarding of a survival craft, and actions as a passenger during launching operations.
• Use of helicopter rescue strops, and winching procedures.

The T–FOET course will refresh delegates on their basic level of understanding and awareness of safety and emergency response on offshore installations. Delegates will be required to demonstrate their skills and a level of knowledge and understanding of key areas, as defined in the OPITO Standard for Tropical Further Offshore Emergency Training. The course is designed for personnel intending to work on an installation in any of the tropical warm water operating areas of the offshore oil and gas industry and forms part of a Common Offshore Safety Induction process.

The course provides an awareness of the hazards encountered when travelling to and from offshore installations, offshore safety regime and safety management systems. Theoretical and practical training in Sea Survival including First Aid, Basic Fire Fighting and Self-Rescue, Helicopter Safety and Escape.

PROGRAM CONTENT

The course focuses on the following elements:

Helicopter Safety & Escape: Pre boarding. Safe boarding. In flight safety. Safe disembarkation. In flight emergency actions. Practical Emergency Ditching and Escape training.

Sea Survival: Practical Sea Survival training and group survival techniques. Being rescued by one of the recognised methods available offshore (eg. helicopter rescue strop, rescue basket, or scramble net). Emergency First Aid including CPR.

Firefighting and Self Rescue: Use of hand held extinguishers. Operation of fixed hose reels. Self-rescue techniques in reduced visibility and completely obscured visibility. Use of escape hoods.
