Course Overview
The Travel Safely by Boat standards were originally a core element of the Tropical Basic Offshore Safety Induction and Emergency Response Training standard (TBOSIET), which was developed jointly by the management of MEGAMAS Training Company Sdn Bhd; Kuala Belait, Brunei and Brunei Shell Petroleum. The element was titled “Travel Safely by Boat” and addressed the Brunei regional requirement for boat travel to and from offshore platforms and transfer of personnel between the vessel and the offshore platform. Those regions where boat travel and transfer is prevalent can now adopt this standard.
