Course description
Awareness is the key to prevention!
The Subsea Well Intervention Pressure Control course is designed for professionals in the oil and gas industry who want to develop a comprehensive understanding of pressure control techniques used in subsea well intervention operations. The course covers the principles of subsea well intervention, including pressure control equipment and systems, risk assessment, and emergency response procedures.
The Safetyman Academy Well Intervention Subsea Pressure Control course provides comprehensive training on subsea well intervention and pressure control operations.
Participants will gain a thorough understanding of the theories, practices, and procedures involved in subsea well intervention and pressure control, including planning, equipment, and execution.
The course emphasizes on the practical application of pressure control concepts, ensuring that participants can apply their learning to real-life situations. Upon completion, participants will have the necessary knowledge and skills to safely and effectively execute subsea well intervention operations
In less than ten hours, this course helps provide a basis for developing a culture of well control awareness and safety among the catering workforce whilst performing their well intervention operations.
