Meeting the Needs of a Global Industry

The oil and gas industry is like no other. Because even routine activities are associated with high levels of risk, those who work in it must have specialised knowledge and skills if they are to keep themselves – and others – safe.

Over recent years the International Technical Certificate in Oil and Gas Operational Safety, developed by Britain's National Examination Board in Occupational Safety and Health (NEBOSH), has come to be regarded as the industry benchmark for those with safety leadership responsibilities.

Such is the importance of this course that a number of New Zealand oil and gas workers have sought to complete the qualification online – a process that has proved quite challenging, and not always successful.
In November, however, Vertical Horizonz New Zealand is partnering with UK-based training provider JRL Solutions to offer the first face-to-face delivery of the programme in the country. Internationally recognised NEBOSH tutor and petrochemical consultant Peter Brookbank will be in New Plymouth from November 25 to 29 to lead the five-day course, which culminates in a two-hour written examination.

VHNZ's health and safety manager Charli Crocker says this is an exciting opportunity for anyone in the oil and gas industry who wants to take their career to another level, and gain access to a number of opportunities, raise the standard of health and safety within NZ.
