BP USA Houston, Texas Training management 600 2005 ongoing |
Petrofac Training has been working with BP Offshore in the Gulf of Mexico since March 2006 and has designed, and established a world-class training function across BP USA's deepwater activities.
The contract was awarded following the completion of a marine baseline survey and audit for seven of BP's deepwater installations in the Gulf of Mexico, resulting in the development of a training needs analysis for all marine personnel. Petrofac Training identified the training needs and from this introduced a skill enhancement programme to develop the competence of BP staff. It was the success of this programme, coupled with the dedication of the experienced Petrofac Training team that led to the contract to develop the training and competence function for BP.
Petrofac Training was chosen as the provider due to their track record with BP in the Caspian, where Petrofac, through its partnership with TTE, manage and operate the BP owned Caspian Technical Training Centre (CTTC). It is also our experience of managing training solutions for companies including Shell, Apache and Total in Europe, coupled with our in-depth knowledge of European training standards that gives Petrofac Training an unrivalled position in this field.

Shell Robert, LA Survival training 1000 2006 ongoing |
In partnership with the Shell Robert Training Center (SRTC) in Robert, Louisiana, we developed and deliver Shell-specific training, introduced by Shell as a compulsory requirement for all of its own and contractor personnel who visit Shell installations in the Gulf of Mexico more than 3 times in any one year.
The course is managed and run by our survival team, who impart their skills in the challenging HUET drills and exercises. It incorporates a new and unique technique called 'the personal swimmer', as used by the US Naval College, representing an example of using our knowledge and skills to develop courses to meet local requirements.
Recently the partnership with Shell has become stronger with the introduction of our Major Emergency Management and Control Room Operators training delivered by our team from purpose built simulators, designed by Petrofac Training in the Shell Robert Training Center in Louisiana.
