HRDcorp

Course Overview

This two-day cross-training program on overhead crane safety and rigger safety specifically designed for oil and gas companies. This comprehensive training aims to provide participants with the necessary knowledge and skills to ensure safe and efficient operations involving overhead cranes and rigging in the oil and gas industry. By integrating the principles of overhead crane safety and rigger safety, this training program will equip participants with the tools to minimize risks, prevent accidents, and promote a culture of safety in their workplace.

Course Objectives:

  • The objective of this two-day cross-training program is to enhance participants’ understanding of overhead crane safety and rigger safety in the context of oil and gas operations. By the end of the training, participants will be able to:
  • Demonstrate a comprehensive understanding of overhead crane operations, including the types of cranes used in the oil and gas industry, their components, and their functions.
  • Comply with safety regulations and standards specific to overhead crane operations in the oil and gas industry.
  • Perform pre-operation inspections and maintenance procedures for overhead cranes to ensure their safe and efficient operation.
  • Apply proper rigging techniques and equipment selection for lifting operations, considering load capacity and weight estimation.
  • Identify and assess hazards in rigging and crane operations, and implement appropriate risk mitigation measures.

Course Output

  • Understand and utilize rigger signals effectively for clear and safe communication between riggers and crane operators.
  • Implement fall protection measures and work safely at heights during overhead crane operations.
  • Develop emergency response plans for crane incidents and demonstrate knowledge of first aid and rescue procedures for crane-related accidents.
  • Analyze case studies and real-life examples of crane and rigging accidents to identify preventive measures and best practices.
