All personnel who may be exposed to NORM in the workplace

This course aims to provide an awareness of Naturally Occurring Radioactive Material (NORM) and provide best practice for managing NORM in oil and gas producing facilities.

Is there an assessment? 

Once you have completed the course, you will be asked a series of questions to check your knowledge and understanding. These are based on the learning objectives for the course and have a pass mark of 80%.

Learning Objectives:

LO1 Define what is meant by NORM

LO2 Explain what is meant by ‘radioactive material’ and the difference between alpha particles, beta particles and gamma rays

LO3 Identify where NORM is found 

LO4 Describe the risks and hazards associated with NORM

LO5 Explain the purpose of radiation monitors

COURSE DESCRIPTION

We investigate to take lesson learned, implement preventive measures, and to prevent recurrence of adverse events. Investigating an adverse event is like peeling an onion. We start with the direct causes that are the most visible. To get to the bottom of the events, we must uncover "layer upon layer" to discover the causes behind. Technological development and new organizational structures lead to an increase in complexity, and it becomes more difficult to understand the connection between an incident and the underlying causes of an incident. This course presents method, organisation, and process for conducting investigations. The course can also be offered in combination with a classroom session.

COURSE CONTENTS 

• Description and classification of adverse events

• Organising an investigation

• Handling information and evidence

• The loss-causation model

• The MTO model

• The STEP model

• Reporting and follow-up

HOW WILL THIS COURSE BENEFIT ME, AND MY COMPANY?

After completing the module, participants will understand what inquiry is and to the various stages of the investigation process. Participants will also learn about how the investigation is led and implemented in practice.
