Basic Offshore Safety Induction and Emergency Training (BOSIET)
The BOSIET (Basic Offshore Safety Induction and Emergency Training) is a mandatory international certification for anyone working in offshore oil, gas, and energy industries.
This course provides essential safety training and emergency response skills to prepare participants for working in offshore environments such as oil rigs and production platforms.
It is approved by OPITO (Offshore Petroleum Industry Training Organisation – UK) and is recognised globally as a key qualification for offshore employment.
BOSIET serves as a foundation for all offshore personnel and is often referred to as the international visa for offshore careers, as no individual can join offshore work sites without this certification.
