This course is intended for Dynamic Positioning Operators (DPO) with a certificate from the Nautical Institute that are unable to revalidate their DPO certificate due to insufficient DP sea time.

By the end of the course the participants shall:

- Have acquired knowledge of the latest rules and regulations
- Have acquired knowledge of the latest developments within sensors and Position Reference Systems (PRS)
- Have acquired knowledge of the latest relevant DP incidents and why they occurred
- Be able to recognize the various alarm, warning and information messages
- Carry out operational planning, risk assessment and hazard identification tasks
- Set up the DP system for a particular task/operation
- Decide on courses of action because of system failure


The course is conducted as classroom training, combining theoretical presentation  and practical work/discussion with exercises in simulator and guidance. For practical capabilities and skills, exercises are performed in fully equipped DP simulator. This course will fulfil the revalidation learning objectives as specified by Nautical institute.

Kurset er en påbygging på ordinært truckførerbevis for trucker t.o.m. 10 tonn, og vil gi deltagerne den kompetanseheving som skal til for å kunne betjene stortruck sikkert, slik at uhell og ulykker unngås.

Innhold

- Krav til Truckfører

- Ulykker med stortruck

- Truckens virkemåte og konstruksjon

- Stabilitet

- Godshåndtering

- Kontroll og vedlikehold

- Sikkerhetsregler ved bruk

- Sertifisering/dokumentasjon

Etter bestått teoretisk prøve og gjennomført grunnleggende praktisk bruk + praksiskjøring, kan praktisk prøve gjennomføres. Bestått praktisk prøve vil være grunnlag for utstedelse av kompetansebevis for fører av truck over 10 000 kg, i aktuell klasse.

Objective: Through a combination of theory and practical training, this course provides participants with the necessary knowledge on how to perform rescue from enclosed spaces.

The Norwegian Labor Inspection Authority has made major changes to the regulations. People who work in tanks and closed rooms are the biggest difference that the regulation "Work in tanks" has fallen away. This is replaced by section 29 of the regulations «execution of work», which states that all work in closed rooms shall be performed «without danger to life or health». A simple requirement that gives the employer a great deal of responsibility.

New SOLAS requirements: Exercises in closed rooms and rescue, as well as portable gas measuring equipment.

Applies to: All ships covered by SOLAS and all high-speed vessels, mobile offshore drilling units and dynamically positioned vessels

Our courses are in accordance with SOLAS-IMO requirements and the Norwegian Labor Inspection Authority - Execution of work

The definitions of a cramped space vary from country to country, but the usual criteria usually include:

- A room that is predominantly or completely closed
- Contains health and / or safety hazards
- Is not designed for continuous stay of employees
- Has entrances or exits that are small or difficult to access
- A room that is large enough that you can enter it completely and perform the work tasks you have been assigned
- Limited air circulation

Content:

- Knowledge of public laws and regulations
- Know which constituents a safe breathing air contains
- How to make a gas measurement before entering
- Planning of entry jobs and rescue operations in closed rooms
- Equipment knowledge
- Exercises in entry and use of fall protection equipment, rescue equipment, breathing air equipment and gas meter
- Implementation of rescue work in connection with closed and cramped rooms
- Rigging of fall protection and rescue equipment
- Patient management

Objective: To give the person who is to work with a traverse crane knowledge about safe use, daily control and maintenance as well as competence to avoid accidents and incidents.

The authorities set requirements for basic safety certification of persons who are to operate bridge and overhead cranes. The requirements include both theoretical and practical training

G4 Bridge and Traverse Crane Basic course consists of modules 2.7 and 3.7. To complete the course, you must take and pass a theoretical exam.

Proper use of overhead cranes is of great importance for the safety of crane operators and other personnel who participate in lifting operations. Incorrect assessments can have major consequences and lead to serious injuries to the crane driver, other personnel as well as equipment and surroundings. Positive attitudes towards safety are therefore important during training.

The crane driver training for G4 consists of five modules:

- Module 1.1 working environment, responsibilities and consequences. *
- Module 2.3 G11 Lifting gear (strap and sling).
- Module 2.7 G4 bridge and overhead crane
- Module 3.7 Basic practical training G4
- Module 4.7 Practical driving training G4
- Practical Final test G4

* Module 1.1 is common to machine, forklift and crane. If you can not document that you have module 1.1 from before that is not older than 3 years, this must be taken again.

Module 4.7 can be completed in a company using a sponsorship arrangement. If you do not have the opportunity to do so, you can participate in one of STQ's practice courses.

Content:

- Introduction with requirements for the driver
- Applications for overhead cranes
- Accidents with bridge and overhead cranes
- Construction of different types
- Electrical system on bridge and traverse cranes
- Safety switches
- Steel rope / block
- Certification / documentation
- Inspection and maintenance
- Main components
- Checkpoints
- Overload safety equipment
- Practical use of lifting equipment
- Driving technique
