Lifeboat Inspection, Drills, Operation, and Maintenance Training Series

All personnel need to be familiar with everything from inspection and maintenance to launching, operating, and the recovery of lifeboats. This ensures that they can safely and confidently operate the lifeboats on their installation.

This three-course series provides a comprehensive overview of lifeboat operations, survival, and rescue practices. Additionally, students will receive an in-depth review of the weekly and quarterly inspection and maintenance processes.

• Course one, A Training Guide to Lifeboat Inspection, Maintenance, & Alternative Launch Requirements, delves into the basic procedures for inspecting and maintaining lifeboats, davits, winches, and hooks. It also guides personnel through the weekly and quarterly inspection and maintenance processes.

  This program further provides guidance on how offshore companies can execute alternative launch drills. It demonstrates that all performance tasks required while the lifeboat is in the water can be effectively replicated while the lifeboat is stowed in the davit with the maintenance pendants attached.

• Course two, Lifeboat Muster, Drills, Launch, and Retrieval Best Practices, empowers students to identify various types of lifeboats and davits and to comprehend their launching procedures. They'll also grasp the process of mustering, conducting drills, and preparing for a launch in emergencies.

• The final course, Lifeboat Survival Practices: Operation, Navigation, Seamanship, and Rescue, is crafted to educate students on all facets related to the launching, operating, and recovery of lifeboats.
