Future videos coming about the energy industry, the services and products used in the energy industry. Regarding jobs, for every offshore energy company we visit and film, we will explain the jobs in that specific area. There are thousands of specialised companies and jobs out there, but it's hard to get easily digestible information about it, this channel's mission is to become a video encyclopaedia of the energy industry. So everyone can understand how it all works, find and hire specialist companies, and help people find jobs.
The more people like the videos and subscribe to the channel, it will make it easier to gain access to companies. It's all appreciated.
please can you do a video on how to become a Health And Safety Officer offshore
Ok, I will do a video on that.
@@EnergyInsider 🙏🏻
Hey Octavia, check out the new video, you get a special mention ;)
@@EnergyInsider Very Insightful video i now know which path to take to get there. Thank you so much Energy Insider Keep up the good work 🙏🏻
Water survival saved my life in 2001 I went down in the Gulf of Mexico in a jet ranger 206 L model. I made it out the helicopter with a spinal cord injury and legs not working. They don’t train for that! But the things taught in school did help.
I’m glad you made it out.
Thanks for sharing
Best video I've seen on this thank you. Got mine booked in 6 weeks!
Nice 1, the same place - AIS Survivex?
Amazing video, very helpful for people like myself away to do it for the first time.
I’m glad you found it useful, and thank you for taking the time to comment and let me know 👍
I've watched couple of videos on T.bosiet and this tops all. Simple and straight forward. Thanks
Thanks Kama Sly, got some new ones coming.
great video and explained well start my BOSIET tomorrow took some useful tips and subscribed to your channel
Hope it went well, thanks for the message 👍
Dude. Awesome job on everything. Keep up these good videos please.
Thank you for talking the time to send us a positive comment.
Replied to your other comment btw with some helpful info 👍
Great video! I have my Bosiet with CA - EBS, MIST and all that good stuff with AIS Survivex on the 26th of this month. Glad someone has done a good video on it to give me an insight. Thanks!
Nice!!!!
Glad to hear, all the best 👍
@@EnergyInsider Thank you
Thank you very much for the video! Very interesting and invormative!
Thank you for taking the time to send some positive feedback 👍
Thank you for that. Going to get mine booked next week. Been wanting to work on the oil rigs for a while now. Going to take the plunge
It's a great time for it, there is a big shortage of workers in the UK at the moment.
Check out the guide on offshore survival website, it's only got a fraction of the jobs on there but it will give some info. www.offshoresurvivalcourse.co.uk/oil-rig-jobs/
All the best,
Great video! Very informative and inserting to watch
Thanks Sarah 👍
great insight , im looking to leave the marines this year , and cant wait to get my foot in the door
Nice 1. Send some feedback on your journey of finding/getting a job
Thanks a lot for the video, l found that very helpful.
No problem, thank you for the comment.
Got the GWO wind turbine course coming out next week. Let me know your thoughts on that one 👍
Nice video mate!👏
Appreciate it 👍
very good presentation and a quality content
Thank you 👍
This is Great Thank You 😊
You’re welcome 😊
Thank you for the video
Thank you for letting me know :)
very informative and well presented
Thank you, more coming 👍
I want too say thanks for making this video because i have too do the same👍👏👏👏👏
Thank you 😊
Nuff respect on the tips✌️
👊
Such a Informative video
Thanks Arslan, appreciate it 👍
A couple of things stand out for me regarding the BOSIET. I wear glasses and felt a little uneasy in the pool area because everything was blurred as I had to leave the specs in the locker, I'm sure other people have felt the same. The hardest part of the training for me was pulling myself into the life raft, if it was a real emergency in the rough North Sea there is no way in this world I could pull myself in. You need a lot of strength, nowadays I would need a strong young lad to get in the raft first and pull me up by the tag on the back of my survival suit. Good video
Super training video
Next video coming, about a subsea soil sampling tool for wind turbines. Thanks for the comment Prasad👍
Well explained Pal
Thanks Mo
Did this course in September 2023 at the same Survivex training centre. Would highly recommend them👌🏻👌🏻
Great to hear that. It’s a good place to do it
@LewisMacKay how much they charged for this training???
@@engrmalikanwarawan9325 when I did it it was on deal and was £900 now it’s gone up I think
perfectly made video, thanks for that! and ate you planning to make videos explaining each roles on offshore rig platforms, what they do, what is the requirements, salaries etc? and how to try to get them? thanks
Hi thanks for the comment, at the moment, we are working on making lots of content about offshore wind, mapping out the different services and jobs. It's an area that is going to need a huge amount of workers especially in the UK. Unlikely we'll have a video on oil/gas jobs in the near future.
Thank you for your time and effort.Such an informative video.Im not sure of your back ground but you should be an instructor or even a spokesman.
Thanks Jeffrey, my background is in oil/gas and later wind turbine construction. Thanks for the positive feedback, really appreciate it. More videos coming, literally making them now.
Thanks for the video it was very helpful
Thank you for this detailed breakdown it’s highly appreciated. Once you’ve acquired all of the necessary tickets, from your experience how easy is it to find employment or do a lot of companies want previous experience?
Thank you Sam.
Regarding your question. Previous experience is usually preferred against someone who has none, however at the moment in the UK for example, it is difficult to find experienced people, and therefore more people with no industry experience are being hired. You should check out the www.offshoresurvivalcourse.co.uk/ website - look for the 'offshore survival guide' on there, it's free, there is a lot of effort in that to explain how the industry works in relation to finding jobs, answered questions etc
Did mine years ago in Hull
Did you need a fit to train medical to do it at that time?
quality content
Thanks Octavia. More coming soon. 😎
Hi boss, I don’t know swimming, can I go with this trainings?
Thank you for the info, I am a beginner to the field. Wanted to know whether CDC requested for offshore rig Jobs ?
I'm not sure what you mean by CDC's, what is that?
is BOSIT the same as STCW?
I just got my STCW training but I think it's the same, it included everything you mentioned.
It does look similar, I’m not sure. @aisgroupchannel are you able to jump on this to confirm?
Great video btw. I have a few questions. Are you required to be clean shaved for the BOSIET regarding facefit for respirators? And do you know if it is a standard across the oil rig industry to be clean shaved? Ive searched the Internet with no clear answers. Thanks.
No, there are lots of guys with full beards offshore.
That has never came up as an issue.
@@EnergyInsider Phew! 😅 Thanks for the reply!
I’ve been booked in for my Nest & bosiet, is it likely I’m starting soonish ? They haven’t given a start date 😅 but I’m just wandering if this is the final step before mobilisation
Hi Rose Cherrie
I just want to make sure I understand 😄
You have booked a ‘Mist and BOSIET’ with a training provider, but they haven’t given you a start date for the course?
If you are assuming that completion of the course means that the training provider will connect you with a hiring company to start work, this is not the case.
The course will make you safe to work offshore from an HSE training matrix perspective.
If you want some more info on the details of getting a job offshore in oil and gas, check offshoresurvivalcourse.co.uk and look for the guide
Hello. I would like to know if there is a written test, what kind of questions are asked in theory. Is difficult? Thanks for you time.
The tests are guided well
By the instructors, they will teach you all the info before the test so I’d say the difficulty is low
Hello.This is very nice video. Thank you.
I have BOSIET +HUET+EBS certificate until 2028.
I can't swim. I received an invitation to do a engine repair on an oil platform.But CA-EBS certificate is required.
Do I need to be submerged underwater with the helicopter cabin again to get CA-EBS certification?
I've done this 6 times. It scares me to do it again.
Do I need to do this again to get a CA-EBS certificate?
Can I not take CA training only in a dry environment?
Thank you verymuch in advance.
Hi bro , I don’t know swimming, shall i go this training
Sir please were can i apply for this course
I noticed in your HUET videos you didn’t use your EBS. Is that optional or not part of certain training courses? Feel like I’d rather train with it if it’s part of standard kit.
Well spotted,
I didn’t use it in the HUET, but i did had to demonstrate that I could breathe with it under water. I can’t remember why we did it that way. I’ll ask next time i speak with AIS survivex.
Thanks! To be honest, I’d be happy with just the nose plug for the training if allowed. Happy holding my breath but I’m a weak swimmer and tend to freak out from all the water up my nose
i am a qualified diesel mechanic i have mostlly being in training as an assessor and trainer for tvet but as of this time i want to penetrate the energy industry be it in the marine onshore or offshore thats where i would like to retire and i thing as your breakdown of the BOSIET course it is a posible break through i guess
Diesel mechanics are really useful. There are so many diesel motors and generators. Look for companies that provide services offshore, they often bring diesel powered equipment.
Baker hughes , many business in the Acteon group for example
I'm a Floorhand, I really appreciate this video for refreshing my memory, I've T-BOSIET, BOSIET but it has expired, please advise on which course should I go for so that I can go back to work.
The standard will be BOSIET + OGUK medical for working offshore in oil/gas. It might be company or region specific, and you might need something else depending on the project. Your agency or recruiter will let you know.
All the best 👍
thanks for the excellent video, Could you please advice how much swimming experience we need, I don't know how to swim.
Thanks
You only need to show you can get out of the helicopter and float. No swimming ability required.
BOSIET is a breeze really easy, really comfortable and overall safe anyone can do it.
Glad to hear that.
I had someone during my Bosiet at the time at falck nutech that wasn't even able to swim and got it without any issue
@aslan2190 I have a knee injury old problem will that be an issue
🤔 i would definitely wear swimwear because they ain’t going to give you a new suit like in this video. It will be an old one that leaks! You will get wet.
Also on Huet, it really important to concentrate on timing your last breath or you are not in a good place.
Definitely have go to put window first as he said then buckle, but when you release the buckle, you have to make sure and turn it fully and twist hips to get all straps off, dont let go of it until legs are definitely free, then just follow arms.
If you work on offshore vessels in the Uk MIST is not required, its only for platforms as far as i know
Good advice. 👍
Living in the USA where can I get my Certifications and also look for a job leads my companies
Im not sure for the US.
Please I need questions and answers for a boat loading officer job, urgently
Did you get your answers from the video? Also lots of people have asked different questions in the comments, you might find your answer in the replies. If not, post a specific comment
Informative 👍🏻
If i don't know swim is it possible to get BOSIET???
Yes, no problem, you will get assistance from the training team.
How i can apply to make the bosiet curse
And if i can do anywhere in Europe
Tank you
Check out this page, you can find an OPITO approved training provider near you. opito.com/training/centre-network
done this back in 2019 for some work in Angola, we had to do the helicopter without the CA-EBS (rebreather), brutal if you’ve got rubbish lung capacity like me😂
The CA-EBS is so much better right!?! It's exactly what you need if you were in a ditch situation, to give you an extra 30 seconds to get out.
i would like to know from your experience what is the likelihood to landing a job after completing this course as diesel mechanic .....
Pretty good in terms of demand for that skill. But it depends on how well you can find the companies who need you.
im thinking on offshore carrier jobs, licensed Mechanical engineer and a firefighter now here in Philippines. what training need to suit me on offshore carrier jobs. thank you for an interesting video.
This course is the main one for oil and gas. There is the GWO BST course for offshore wind turbines, not sure if you are building much wind turbines where you are yet. But that will be an area of lots of jobs.
how we can found the school of trainning bosiet in the world.,
Check here. It is an OPITO standard course. So it’s in the OPITO training centre locations lists. 👍
OPITO = non profit industry skills organisation
opito.com/training/centre-network
Sir were can I get valid certificate of bosiet, h2s, huet?
Im not sure what country you are in. To check for centres, see the opito website link of approved training providers.
opito.com/training/centre-network
Answer to your last question : It is risky to train without having a job offers first..... This is what I did in the beggining of 2015.... BOSIET, MIST, Green Hand Training, Banksman And Slinger training, ERTM training (Emergency Response Team Member) plus Offshore Medical...... I had them all ....... but LUCK wasn''t on my side...... Right at this moment the oil price dropped 70% and many offoshore companies started to letting go personel for a very long time...... Now I am just a farmer in Eastern Europe......
Absolutely, that was a big downturn. Sorry to hear that didn’t work out.
Do you have too do a exam on that after that training🇬🇾
There are various tests throughout to prove that you understand.
im 61 very healthy and 165 pounds can i still get work on the offshore rigs
If you had your medical certs up to date and skills they needed, I don’t see why not.
Last time I sat my FOET course in 2020 they didn't make us do the HUET inverted with windows in. Not sure if they are dumbing it down because of a skilled workers shortage or to make it easier for a certain gender.
I am not sure about that, it is possible that the requirement is only certain combinations and that some training centres do extra manoeuvres.
Hello iwould like to know after finish the offshore training where can you apply the job in france
not sure about France
@@EnergyInsider but im leaving in france iwould like to do the offshore training and pipe fiter but where can i apply jobs
Whats the outcome after doing this course?
Can anyone do this training and get a job ??
It's the training required for going offshore. You can't work offshore without it. It won't get you a job, if you have desirable skills and companies need a person quickly, then having this course already will be beneficial.
If i doing this but i can't swimming..what's i can do this ?
Yes that is no problem. 👍
Sir I have complete For gp rating course can I join in oil rig please tell me sir
Hi, I’m not sure what the GP rated course is, either way I am not the gatekeeper. You will have to find some companies and apply. Read the guide on offshoresurvivalcourse.co.uk that will be very useful for you
Can someone who doesn't know how to swim can pass this training course ?
Yes. You don’t need to know how to swim. As long as you pass the tasks
Hello, thank you for the video, very informative.
Is it possible to pass the medical with a vision impairment like short-sightedness?
Cheers
There are a lot of people that need glasses offshore. As long as you can read to the required level with your glasses on you should be fine.
Before you book, give them medical place a quick phone to confirm.
@@EnergyInsider
Thank you for the response.
Do you think having land drilling experience along side all the necessary offshore tickets might be a way to break into the industry?
@@stepupyourgame9510 the short answer is yes.
That experience is great, and things are very busy at the moment with the Ukraine thing affecting demand.
If you haven’t done it already, contact agencies and drilling companies. Check out this website www.offshoresurvivalcourse.co.uk/
Look in the discounts section for the ‘free’ guide, it should give you some companies and agencies.
That should help a lot
I'd love to be able to do this but there is one problem I have a bladder problem and I have to wear a catheter condom with a urinal tube attached to a leg bag attached to my left leg not sure if I could do this would I need to wear a adult nappy underneath the drysuit?
I am not sure about this one, I'm going to this same training centre to do the Wind turbine training course at the end of the month. I'll ask about it.
@@EnergyInsider ask about what
Asking about the catheter, regarding restrictions.
@@EnergyInsider did you find out
I asked the medic at Survivex(training location in video). They said that you wouldn’t pass the medical for going offshore. Technically you could do the course, but it would be pointless as you wouldn’t be able to go offshore anyway. Sorry Fella
Do cooks also need to have bosiet?
Yes they do. Anyone who works offshore in oil / gas need the qualifications mentioned in the video.
Is there an age limit to start? I’m 40…
I’m fit though, ex professional boxer
There isn't an age limit that I'm aware of, health is the main factor. Offshore the average age is probably about 40 (from my experience).
If you are fit and healthy and can pass the course then you'll be fine.
So can I still do it if I can’t swim or no ?
Yes, no problem 👍
Is there a chance for someone with a civil engineering degree getting a job in the offshore companies
Yes absolutely, especially in the offshore wind industry. There are many crossover skills
@@EnergyInsider ok thanks
Please how much is the course and where do they do it
It depends on where you are in the world, training provider etc.
We had 2 guys in our team do it recently.
Approx £800 for Bosiet + £180 for the OGUK medical and the fit to train (FTT). The FTT is needed to do the bosiet.
Could I possibly talk to your self as I’m just starting out
Hi, I’m not taking calls but if you have any specific questions stick them in the chat. Also on offshoresurvivalcourse.co.uk check out the free guide in the discount section.
What is the theory work like in this course? Not my favourite part of courses 😂
Yeah, it’s not all exciting but there are some good stories and messages in there. The story behind Piper Alpha disaster and how that revolutionised the safety standards is interesting. And all the processes put in place as a result.
I have paramedics certificate, can i apply to get into offshore??
I think that would help for being a medic, I'll drop the answer in here when I’ve found out
@@EnergyInsider thanks soo much sir 🙏😇
Hi bro, r u got job in offshore?
Hi bro did you got job?
Look and observe
Exactly ;)
Hi can i talk to you directly please
Faulkin in the US requires more requirements.. but if it is acceptable to your country... Then don't mis interpret our... uS ... Required academic.... Canada has a different requirement than . We do
What is salary?
A total variety. And it depends on what you are specialising in and how much that is in demand.
How can I get a job in offshore?
I think the best website for info on that (for now) is the offshore survival course website. See link
www.offshoresurvivalcourse.co.uk/
@Zeeshi 786 I just tried it now, and worked fine. Try typing 'offshoresurvivalcourse.co.uk' it in google search, maybe there is a glitch

Offshore survival training
It sure it 😎
3m 56s he should have used the back of his hand.
Good thinking.. ;)
Its not easy to get job after training offshore
No it’s not obvious where jobs are. Most of the work is in what’s called the ‘supply chain’
It’s the service companies you can find jobs easier as a new person to the Industry, however understanding the industry is now your challenge.
There is an ok guide on offshore survival course .co.uk
Ok thank you
А у вас в штатах тоже в дырявом оборудовании проходят BOSIET
костюмы могут немного протекать на тренировках, но костюмы, используемые на работе, очень высокого стандарта.[Google translate]
Are you allowed to wear goggles for the helicopter escape
I don’t think so. There might be an exception for a medical reason for example, but I have never seen it.
So many false aspects your saying
Hi Robert,
I’d like to hear what you say they are.
Got any specific bits information for people who reading these comments?
Very informative😇, Thank a lot🙏
