THUET Shallow Water CA-EBS 5194

This Product is to meet the offshore safety and emergency response training requirements for personnel new (or returning) to the offshore oil and gas industry in a tropical environment and who require additional Compressed Air Emergency Breathing System (CA EBS) training.

No training prerequisites are required, however medical entry requirements must be met. Training activities contained within this Product may include physically demanding and potentially stressful elements. All personnel who participate in such activities must be capable of participating fully. Trainees will undergo a medical screening by completing an appropriate medical declaration form at center.

This Product introduces learners that intend to travel to and from offshore oil and gas installations and vessels by helicopter in a tropical environment by providing specific training in pre-flight and in-flight requirements and to equip learners with the basic emergency response knowledge and skills required in the event of a helicopter emergency – with a specific focus on escaping from a helicopter following ditching and sea survival techniques. It also is to complement the assessment for personnel travelling to an offshore oil and gas installation by helicopter when issued with a Compressed Air Emergency Breathing System (CA-EBS). The objectives of the T-HUET Training are that learners will be able to: a) 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. b) Demonstrate sea survival techniques. The objectives of the additional CA-EBS training delivered in addition to the T-HUET program are to: (a) Ensure learners are familiar with the use of the Compressed Air Emergency Breathing System (CA-EBS) (b) Ensure that learners understand their basic emergency response actions during a helicopter emergency using the CA-EBS

The following topics will be covered during the course: 1. Helicopter Safety and Escape – Tropical using a Modular Egress Training Simulator (METS) 2. Helicopter Emergencies with Use of Compressed Air Breathing System 3. Sea Survival - THUET which includes Evacuation and TEMSPC
