The combination course OPITO FOET/NOGEPA 0.5B with EBS is a refresher training course of the OPITO BOSIET/NOGEPA 0.5A basic training course.
The training is intended for offshore oil and gas personnel. Specific requirements and rules apply to persons working offshore. Basic medical knowledge and survival at sea are among the skills that offshore personnel should have.
The FOET/0.5B is the refresher course for offshore personnel to keep your knowledge of survival techniques, your medical knowledge and your skills regarding survival at sea up to date.
In this OPITO/NOGEPA combination training course your information and knowledge of the EBS system (Emergency Breathing System) is refreshed, which is used in a helicopter to assist in an escape when a helicopter enters the water.
Also part of this training is training with the Escape Chute (also called the NOG/OLF supplement), which is required for working on a platform in Norway. This supplement should not be confused with the S-Cape training.
This course can be optionally supplemented with training on the Compressed Air Emergency Breathing System (CA-EBS).

Frequently asked questions (FAQs)
-
Can I attend a FOET training course if I have no previous knowledge?
No, that is not possible because the FOET is the refresher training of the NOGEPA 0.5A/BOSIET. You must therefore have followed the basic training before you can follow the refresher training. -
What does FOET mean?
FOET stands for Further Offshore Emergency Training. -
What is the difference between NOGEPA 0.5B and FOET?
NOGEPA 0.5B and FOET are two names for the same training. The FOET (NOGEPA 0.5B) is a refresher course of the BOSIET (NOGEPA 0.5A). -
What is the difference between EBS and CA-EBS?
EBS stands for Emergency Breathing System and CA-EBS stands for Compressed Air Emergency Breathing System. Using an EBS extends the time you can spend underwater. A rebreather allows you to keep breathing underwater when you need to escape from a helicopter in the water. When you use a CA-EBS, you breathe air that comes from an air bottle. When this bottle is empty, you will no longer be able to breathe underwater. -
Who will attend a NOGEPA 0.5B with EBS training course?
Personnel working in the offshore oil and gas industry. When working offshore, you need to be aware of specific requirements and rules. During this training, our expert instructors will tell you everything about these requirements and rules. -
What is the difference between NOGEPA 0.5A and NOGEPA 0.5B?
The NOGEPA 0.5B is the refresher training of the NOGEPA 0.5A training. Have you already followed the basic training and do you only need a short refresher course? Then book the NOGEPA 0.5B. Do you have no experience? Then book the NOGEPA 0.5A.
