With COVID-19 meaning that home working is no longer an option but a necessity for many, what are the potential side effects on our health and work performance. Employers may need to provide additional training to ensure appropriate supervision and work behaviours. These include remote technology, communication skills development, time management and ergonomics.

Managing remote teams and business continuity are operational priorities for companies during the COVID-19 pandemic.  Remote working allows some operations to continue and facilitate flexible work schedules, which typically improves individual performance. However, greater flexibility and leading teams remotely puts a greater burden on managers and makes supervision more complex. 

The group of workers who experience most difficulty in handling ‘boundary-less’ working are actually managers.  This is mainly because they are connected longer in their ‘non-working time’.

The ‘Managing Remote Teams’ bundle includes 3 months access to 10 online courses and over 10 hours of eLearning.

• The capability to operate the DP System in various
• modes associated with offshore loading operations; i.e. Joystick, Auto Pos, Approach, Weather Wane
• The ability to carry out any Offshore Loading Operation according to field procedures, guidelines and to best practice.
• The ability to react correctly to any unforeseen DP incident in order to avoid a disaster

CONTENT

• Simulator exercises
• Briefing and de-briefing of a variety of relevant exercises according to the actual field procedures
• Shuttle Tanker competence and training requirements
• Basic Human Factors

LEARNING PROCESS

All Offshore Loading exercises will be carried out on a Full Scale Visual DNV GL Approved DP Class A simulator, being able to simulate all types of operation listed as learning objectives.

CERTIFICATE

Certification of attendance will be issued upon successful completion of the course.

The course "Hose assembly – safe appliances" provides a basic introduction to the safe use of hoses and selection of fittings for different applications. Furthermore, the course focuses on the identification of fittings, as well as basic practical training in hose assembly.

After the course, participants will be able to use the hose assembly equipment in a way that maintains a safe and appropriate work process. The course is divided into a theoretical and a practical part and is concluded with a written certification test. The course is conducted according to the standard TR 1803 and Oil and Gas United Kingdom Standard.

Resertifiseringen er i henhold til NS EN 1591-4. Kurset gir kunnskap om forberedelse, planlegging, utførelse og dokumentering av arbeid på boltede forbindelser. Kurset er en kombinasjon av teori og praksis og avsluttes med en teoretisk test samt en praktisk test med sensor.

For hvem

Mekanikere, industrirørleggere, prosessteknikere, arbeidsledere, planleggere, lærlinger og lignende

Formål

Hovedmålet er å gi nødvendig kompetanse, både kunnskaper og ferdigheter til utførende ansvarlig person som skal demontere, montere og forspenne boltede forbindelser ihht EN 1591-4 kapittel 8.
