An indoor pool with racks of safety harnesses and life jackets beside it. Christopher Viet, senior VP of exploration development and production, basic offshore safety induction and emergency training for somebody who wants to get offshore. He has to have it. Angela Shona chief Communications manager upstream. When you first do this training, you do a three day course and the refresher course is one day training. So medical certificate and these trainings every four years, that's the basics that will make sure we go offshore and we stay safe on an ocean, different offshore platforms, busy with machinery and people sit above the water. We have seen several countries offshore assets in Romania and the Black Sea Norway. And then in Abu Dhabi, we are just setting up offshore operation in New Zealand. We are working actually quite long and as we are working in these countries offshore. So the people working there, they need this training to allowed to work there. Industrial buildings beside the water. A billboard proclaims welcome to Falk is a worldwide company that is specialized in safety and safety operations in providing safety services. And this kind of training actually helps you and you can make personal experiences out of that already in this arena here to learn and train and that, you know, in the real emergency case, what to do a class by the pool. People in wetsuits grab yellow safety suits from a rack and put them on. They strap on navy blue flotation devices around their necks and chest. Then blue helmets, they walk toward a floating life raft with an orange roof, words appear step one helicopter safety and escape. We then immediately started with the helicopter escape training inside the pool. People pop up to the surface wearing their safety gear and breathing through respirators, a partially submerged training tool mimics the seating area of a helicopter with seats and restraints. So on this first training, you don't train with windows, you just make sure inhaler is in place. You open the seat belt and you get out of the helicopter. The helicopter tool is raised above the water with the people strapped into the seats then submerged. On the second training, there's a window in place. People work to move out of the submerged helicopter tool. And on the third part of the training, the helicopter actually rotates fully submerged and with the people strapped inside the helicopter tool quickly spins 180 degrees leaving it upside down. The people quickly work to unstrap and climb out of the windows to the surface at the surface. A man calmly floats on his back toward the edge of the pool. Once out, he gives a thumbs up step two survival at sea, a high platform above the pool with a hole in it and a netted chute below it. When you go to Norway, there's something that's very special to Norway and that's the Norwegian chute. It's a way of escaping off a platform. And this is very, very common in Norway entering feet first, they slide through a zigzag of nets rather than straight down swimming with such a suit on and with a life vest and everything. This best swimming backwards. Ideally, you are not the only person in the water and trying to look for yourself. There's usually a group of people who have escaped a platform in the pool. The people float on their backs and form a chain together with their feet, grasping the torso of the person in front. They use their arms in unison to rot toward a floating life raft. Once inside the raft, a rope with a looped floatation device is placed around their torso and they are lifted up and away.
