AN OFFSHORE survival company is providing training from Aberdeen to Asia during the coronavirus pandemic.
3T Energy Group company, Survivex, is delivering the training through its four-week ‘Live Learning’ programme. It has been developed specifically for a key 3T client in Asia to upskill 70 of its workers for a forthcoming oil and gas project.
Survivex instructors are delivering the training using the latest video conferencing technology with a local 3T Energy Group interpreter translating directly to the delegates.
As soon as travelling restrictions are lifted, the Survivex team will travel to Asia to deliver the practical aspects of these courses and reinforce the theoretical learning.
Craig Wilson, Survivex Onboard operations manager, said: “During the unprecedented current situation, we are looking at creative ways of delivering safety critical training to our clients who need it.
“In this particular case, the client needed urgent training and wasn’t able to travel to any training centres. We needed to come up with an innovative, high-quality, alternative solution, fast and so created our ‘Live Learning’ option.
“Despite these challenging times, it is still critical that we ensure energy workers have the right health and safety skills to be able to do their jobs safely and efficiently.
“The training sector needs to adapt and embrace innovative and technological solutions to keep safety standards high for the global energy industry. This project highlights the type of innovations that Survivex is adopting.”
