OPITO Standard
Product Code: 5614
Who is this Product for?
This Product is to meet the further offshore safety and emergency response training requirements for personnel working in the offshore oil and gas industry in a tropical environment.
What does this Product cover?
This Product introduces learners with the opportunity to practise and demonstrate emergency response skills that are not possible to practise during drills, exercises and emergency training offshore.
The objectives of the T-FOET are that learners will be able to:
(a) Demonstrate, in a simulated environment, that they can use the safety equipment and follow procedures in preparing for and during helicopter emergencies – with particular focus on escaping from a helicopter following ditching. (b) Demonstrate that they can use basic firefighting equipment effectively, and use self-rescue techniques in low visibility and completely obscured visibility situations e.g. smoke-filled areas.
(c) Demonstrate that they can perform basic first aid.

The T-FOET is open to persons who have a valid (in-date) OPITO-approved BOSIET, BOSIET (with CA-EBS), TBOSIET, FOET, FOET (with CA-EBS) or TFOET certificate.
