Offshore Installation Manager MOU Coaching and Assessment Doha

Course details

The objective of this course is to enable prospective and incumbent MOU OIMs to practice and implement the actions and procedures required to safely manage a MOU under operating conditions using a purpose built simulator. The simulator has been built to represent a Jack-up Drilling MOU and can be programmed to represent a variety of operational and emergency situations e.g. in transit, ballasting, positioning, jacking and loss of control situations, for a mobile offshore bottom bearing, self elevated unit (Jack-up Rig). The course leads to assessment of competence to the standard required for the issuance of the LISCR Certificate of Competency for OIM of an MOU.
