[Jack the Ripper]

Yup, you ask for Kenny Mohammed (7404286) if you want to do the HUET part without an audience. They're quite accommodating with 'special' requests.

BOSIET is best all round as said before. I believe only BPTT accepts T-BOSIET, BHP and BGTT only accept BOSIET.

Had a bad experience with HHSL or what??

In all fairness the dunker can be quite intimidating. Being inverted isn't natural to most so adding the submersion water component plus the confined space in 10+ feet of water................well I hope you get the picture.

Admittedly or not, hydrophobia is real, and for some claustrophobia. I haven't seen swimming as one of the minimum requirements for offshore employment so I can only try to imagine what a non-swimmer must have felt after this HUET thing was introduced as mandatory over 5 years ago.

Thanks for all the info folks!

Rick,not really a "bad" experience with HHSL... it just that we have some issues to sort out with some $$$ owed to me by Hummingbird after I did my flight training.

Cheers,
Jason

I hope you got through, if not let me know, I'll rough up Capt. Viera for you.

is that training, similiar or comparable to the training offered by Marine Safety (Training & Consultants) Limited? they do a marine safety course described as : 'Basic Safety Training in Personal Survival Techniques, Fire Prevention and Fire Fighting, First Aid, Personal Safety and Social Responsibilities' but its more commonly called 'pre-sea' ??? I did that course as it was mandatory for the crew members of a ship, so it goes along with my Launch-Engineer's License (basically a glorified mechanic). btw, if any of you guys know any shipping companies (especially those running tug-operations and supply vessels) that will hire, i'll greatly appreciate it if you guys let me know. thanks.

Not exactly, Basic Offshore Safety Induction and Emergency Training (BOSIET) is a UK OPITO course designed to provide delegates with a basic knowledge of safety and emergency response procedures for working on offshore platforms and rigs, not vessels as in your IMO STCW95.

Unlike your Marine Safety, there is an addtional component involving Helicopter Underwater Egress/Escape Training (HUET) - sea survival after ditching at sea.

The BOSIET course involves: Basic Safety Induction; Fire Fighting and Self Rescue; Helicopter Safety and Escape; Sea Survival; Survival First Aid.

The local training enitites are Falck Nutec and HHSL. There are some issues with RGIT at the moment.

triad dont use the bag thing to breath , just hold your breath

[puta civic]

so do you all even need this kind of training??

[crazybalhead]

HUET was a beyotch, I have to do it over in a couple months.

[flatline]

triad dont use the bag thing to breath , just hold your breath

Bag was mandatory for BOSIET, when I did mine a year ago. It's because the BOSIET is designed for international (cold) waters which will make catching your breath difficult. The bag isn't used in the Tropical/Warm water one. First time they flipped me over with the bag, the impact of the water knocked the apparatus out of my mouth, and i had already exhaled all my air into the bag...managed to hold my breath til the flip completely and get out.

Swimming isn't necessary for this course as you are advised to tread water and avoid kicking legs which can damage occupants behind you.
