Mutual Recognition
Framework for Mutual Recognition of Basic and Specialist Safety and Emergency Response Training in the North Sea
The offshore oil and gas industry in the UK, Norway, the Netherlands and Denmark maintain an agreement on basic and specialist safety and emergency response training that is valid across national borders.
The agreement is based on the mutual principle of safety and emergency preparedness training in each of the signatory countries being recognised in the other North Sea countries. Standards in each country have been reviewed to ensure that the national standards for each sector are maintained, and where additional elements (such as Cat-A EBS or escape chute training) are required, these elements are indicated on the matrix.
