About Course
Companies in the onshore Oil and Gas Industry operate and/or develop oil and gas fields as part of upstream oil and gas activities, sometimes referred to as exploration and production. Such activities may include:
Exploring for crude petroleum and natural gas
Drilling, completing, servicing and equipping wells
Operating separators, emulsion breakers, de-silting equipment, and field gathering line for crude petroleum and natural gas; and
Performing other activities in preparing oil and gas up to the point of shipment from the producing location.
This course was developed as a source of information and practical training tool for rig workers to conduct effective safety inspections of onshore drilling rigs to reduce the injury and illness rate and to help companies operate more efficiently. This course will also help the student develop and effective Rig Safety Inspection Program for tools and equipment commonly found on rotary and workover rigs. Each inspection topic includes instructions for assessing and recording the condition of equipment.
