DIGITAL BOSIET WITH CA-EBS

Course ref: 20.005D – (OPITO COURSE CODE: 5752)

Target Group This training programme is designed to meet the initial offshore safety and emergency response training requirements for personnel   new (or returning) to the offshore oil and gas industry who will be   supplied with a compressed air emergency breathing system (CA-EBS)   during offshore helicopter travel and who choose to complete the   underpinning knowledge of the BOSIET programme via the BOSIET   (with CA-EBS) on-line programme prior to attending an OPITO   approved training centre to be formally assessed against all learning   outcomes. Aim The aim and objectives of the Digital Delivery of BOSIET (with CA-EBS)   are identical to those contained in the BOSIET (with CA-EBS) Standard.   These are contained in Section A.4 of the BOSIET (with CA-EBS)   Standard.

Medical & Health Requirements:

Training and/or assessment activities contained within this course may include physically demanding and potentially stressful elements. All personnel who participate in such activities must be physically and mentally capable of participating fully. Therefore OPITO approved training centres are required, as a minimum, to ensure that prior to participating practical exercises, the delegate must either:

a) Possess a valid, current offshore medical certificate, or

b) Possess an operator approved medical certificate, or

c) Undergo medical screening by completing an appropriate medical screening form provided by the OPITO approved centre.

Learning Outcomes

MODULE 1: Learning Outcomes  Safety Induction

To successfully complete this module, delegates must complete the following online elements:

(1) Identify the main offshore hazards and hazard effects/consequences; explain their associated risks, and how they are controlled.

(2) Explain the potential environmental impact of offshore installation operations.

(3) Identify key offshore installation safety regulations and explain the basic concept of these regulations.

(4) Explain the principles of managing safety on offshore installations.

(5) State the procedure for prescribed medicines offshore.

(6) Explain the concept of alcohol and substance abuse policy.

(7) Explain PPE requirements of working on an offshore installation.

(8) Explain how to report incidents, accidents and near misses on an offshore installation.

(9) Explain the role of the Offshore Medic.

Formal evaluation of knowledge:

On Completion of the Module 1 online elements Delegates will be required to undertake a written test on the first day of attendance at I.S.T.C. As a method of checking that they have met all the Module 1 learning outcomes. The test will be ‘open-book’ and questions must be clearly referenced against specific Module 1 learning outcomes.

There must be a minimum of two questions per learning outcome. All learning outcomes must be achieved during the written test.

Training instructors must identify any gaps in delegate’s learning and make reasonable effort to address the gaps to help delegates meet the learning outcomes.

MODULE 2: Helicopter Safety and Escape

To successfully complete this training, delegates must be able to demonstrate:

(1) Donning of an aviation transit suit, an aviation life-jacket, compressed air emergency breathing system (CA-EBS) equipment and conducting integrity checks of the CA-EBS equipment, including buddy checks.

(2) Deploying (left and right hand) and breathing from CA-EBS equipment at atmospheric pressure in dry conditions.

(3) Actions to take in preparing for a helicopter emergency landing.

(4) Following instruction from the crew, location of CA-EBS equipment and evacuation from a helicopter using a nominated exit, following a controlled emergency descent to a dry landing (conducted in helicopter simulator at poolside on dry land).

(5) Actions to be taken in preparing for an in-water ditching including location of exit, deploying and breathing from CA-EBS equipment at atmospheric pressure in dry conditions (conducted in helicopter simulator at poolside on dry land).

(6) Dry evacuation, using a nominated exit, to an aviation life raft from a helicopter ditched on water (and, on instructions from the aircrew, operation of a push out window), assisting others where possible and carrying out initial actions on boarding the aviation life raft, to include: mooring lines, deploying the sea anchor, raising the       canopy and raft maintenance.*

(7) Escaping through a window opening which is underwater, from a partially submerged helicopter (without operation of a push out window).*

(8) Escaping through a window opening which is underwater, from a partially submerged helicopter (with operation of a push out window).*

(9) Escaping through a window opening which is underwater, from a capsized helicopter (without operation of a push out window).*

(10) Inflation of an aviation life-jacket, deployment of a spray visor and boarding of an aviation life raft from the water.*

*Note: CA-EBS equipment must not be worn during Learning Outcomes 6 thru 10.

(11) Deploying CA-EBS (above the water surface) and breathing from the CA-EBS in a pool, face down in shallow water (at a maximum depth of 0.7 M, measured at the chest).

(12) Deploying CA-EBS (below the water surface, face down in a pool in shallow water) and clearing the mouthpiece by exhaling under the water surface (at a maximum depth of 0.7 M, measured at the chest)

(13) Deploying CA-EBS (below the water surface, face down in a pool in shallow water, using opposite hand to previous exercise) and clearing with purge button under the water surface (at a maximum depth of 0.7 M, measured at the chest).

(14) Deploying CA-EBS (above water surface), in a pool and breathing from CA-EBS underwater in a vertical    position (at a maximum depth of 0.7 M, measured at the chest).

(15) Deploying CA-EBS (underwater), in a pool and breathing from CA-EBS underwater in a  vertical position (at a maximum depth of 0.7 M, measured at the chest).

(16) Deploying CA-EBS (underwater), in a pool, breathing from CA-EBS underwater, and moving along a horizontal rail for a period of no less than 30 seconds, including a change in direction (at a maximum depth of 0.7 M, measured at the chest).

Note 3: Training Staff must directly supervise delegates during any underwater ascent using CA-EBS equipment to ensure that the delegate exhales during the ascent.

MODULE 3: Sea Survival

To successfully complete this module, delegates must be able to demonstrate:

(1) Donning of a permanent buoyancy life-jacket prior to use in an emergency.

(2) The correct actions when mustering and boarding a survival craft (TEMPSC) as a passenger during launching operations.

(3) Fitting of a helicopter rescue device and correct body posture during winching.

(4) Water entry (stepping off poolside, maximum height 1 metre) and the precautions to be taken when entering the water

(5) Individual and group sea survival techniques, to include: swimming, getting into Heat Escape Lessening Position (HELP), wave-slap protection, towing, chain, huddle and circle.

(6) Boarding a marine life-raft from the water.

(7) *Immediate first aid actions, including checking airways, breathing and industry recognised first aid practice**

*Immediate first aid actions – putting casualty in the recovery position: delegates must get instruction and demonstration only from instructors on putting a casualty into the recovery position but do not need to demonstrate this.

** Industry recognised first aid practice – this may vary depending on first aid practice guidelines adopted in different countries/regions.

MODULE 4: Firefighting and Self Rescue

To successfully complete this module, delegates must be able to demonstrate:

(1) Correct use of hand held portable fire extinguishers and which ones to use for different classes of fires.

(2) Self-rescue techniques with a smoke hood or partial blindfold from areas where delegate visibility is reduced.

(3) Self-rescue techniques with a smoke hood or partial blindfold from areas where delegate visibility is completely obscured.

(4) Small group escape techniques with a smoke hood or partial blindfold from areas where delegate visibility is completely obscured.

A.6 Delegate Performance Assessment

Delegates will be assessed against the learning outcomes specified in section A.5 using direct observation and oral and/or written questions as appropriate.
