Description

Ocean Technologies Group are now offering Ex-Basic training developed by ExTek and Seagull Oil & Gas. ExTek is the only CompEx licensed centre in Norway. The CompEx scheme is the global solution for validating core competency of employees and contracted staff working in Ex areas. All the e-learning material in this course is developed by experienced practitioners that have worked in the field for years.

This course was developed as a direct response of the need to increase specific knowledge of electricians, automation engineers and managers of what dangers explosive atmospheres constitute and the protection systems that are put in place to reduce the hazards. The course will provide participants with in-depth understanding of electrical installations in hazardous areas to enable them to carry out installation and maintenance work in a safe and professional manner. Candidates will become familiar with the contents of the international Ex regulations, standards and guidelines.

On completion of this course you will receive a Certificate of Completion from Ocean Technologies Group, powered by Marlins, Seagull and Videotel.
