Emergency Response Planning for Fire Incidents in the Oil and Gas Sector


Cairo


From 


INTRODUCTION:

 

The Oil and Gas industry is recognized as one of the most hazardous occupational sectors in the world. The safety of infrastructure, workers and processes are imperative and any incident should be approached with a serious commitment. Therefore, emergency response management in the Oil & Gas industry play a crucial role in corporate integrity and reputation.

There has been an increase in the range of potential incidents and emergencies which could affect, disrupt, or stress production.  If managed appropriately then not all of these incidents will be critical or could be classified as a crisis, but those which result in substantial losses, or put increased demand on the organisation will have severe consequences for the company, the company’s stakeholders, the country and the reputation of all those involved in the response. This course will teach you that meeting the commitment involves more than just being fully prepared.

This course aims to provide training for candidates in fire protection and emergency response process, focusing on direct and effective command and control operations, communication with separate agencies and coordination of many different functions and personnel assignments. On meeting the minimum standard of competence in fire prevention and firefighting, a trainee will be competent to take appropriate measures for the safety of personnel and of the plant and to use fire appliances correctly. The trainee will also gain insight into methods of fire prevention.
