Why Choose this Training Course?
Why Choose this Training Course?
An ideal course to introduce or refresh your onsite Technicians and Engineers with knowledge of Electrical Construction standards and compliance with current legislation and practices. A perfect course for any practicing Technician or Engineer to hone their skills and knowledge.
The benefits to a company or individual are far reaching. The benefits of having a course delivered to you and your employees, which will not only develop their skills and understanding, but will also further refresh and add to existing technical skill within your work force. The course will enable participants to develop their knowledge with Electrical and Instrument construction techniques, with a large emphasis on potentially explosive atmospheres, which are commonly found within Oil & Gas field type installations.
This seminar will highlight:
- Knowledge of onsite health and safety such as Permit to work, Electrical isolation and Inspection & Testing.
- Development and addition of skills which are needed to work within an Oil & Gas Installation.
- The implications and use of the IEC 60079-14 and associated series of standards for safe Oil & Gas installation compliance.
- Minimum standards versus Best practice within Oil & Gas Installations.
- Competence of personnel who work within Oil & Gas Installation relating to construction.
