OPITO, the global safety and skills organisation for the energy industry, together with the OGUK Aviation Services Task Group, has launched new standards to ensure helicopter refuelling on offshore assets is consistently completed safely and effectively.
The Helicopter Refuelling Initial Training and Workplace Competence Assessment Standards, which have been developed in collaboration with a cross-sector working group, recognise an industry requirement to ensure consistent training and competence of helicopter refuelling teams across the whole UK Continental Shelf, and further afield.
Ewen Hay, Director of Product Development, OPITO, said: “The prominent need for consistent and high-quality training for helicopter refuelling personnel was what made this industry collaboration between OPITO and OGUK so vital.
