Shelf Drilling, Intensive New Induction Training – “Boot Camp”

Shelf Drilling requires all its new employees to be competent in its HSE procedures and tasks. When a new rig is about to be commissioned it is very important that that the employees are aware of the hazards in the offshore environment.

Proclad Academy developed a ‘Boot Camp’ Training program to prepare new starts before they are deployed offshore. The intensive Boot Camp training is run over 12 hours every day for 14 days to simulate and prepare the candidates for the rig’s shift pattern.

Project Deliverables

Many of the new starts are new to the offshore environment so the program is designed to be as realistic as possible by giving the delegates real jobs to complete during the program. Areas covered in the program include:

  • Rigging and slinging
  • Forklift truck
  • Manual Handling
  • Housekeeping
  • Fire Watcher
  • Painting
