Why Tropical HUET Training Matters

T-HUET prepares offshore personnel traveling by helicopter in tropical regions to manage emergencies with confidence. The training includes understanding helicopter hazards, ditching procedures, marine survival, underwater escape, and operating emergency equipment. With realistic pool-based simulations and step-by-step guidance, participants gain essential survival skills required for working offshore.

Additional Information

Who Should Attend
Personnel who travel offshore by helicopter in tropical regions and require helicopter underwater escape training.
Learning Outcomes
On completion delegates will be able to: • Identify helicopter travel hazards in tropical regions and the associated safety equipment. • Adopt correct brace positions and emergency procedures. • Escape from a capsized, submerged helicopter and carry out tropical sea survival on the surface.
Training Methodology
Delivered through a blend of classroom theory and instructor-led practical exercises. Helicopter escape and sea survival are practised in a controlled indoor pool using a Modular Egress Training Simulator (METS), and fire-fighting and smoke-filled escape are carried out on a dedicated fire ground — all under close instructor supervision.
Assessment Method
Continuous practical assessment by OPITO-approved instructors against the OPITO standard. Delegates must demonstrate competence in every exercise — helicopter escape, sea survival, first aid and fire-fighting/self-rescue. An OPITO-approved certificate is issued on successful completion.
What to Bring
Swimwear and a towel for the water-based exercises, comfortable clothing suitable for physical activity, and a valid photo ID. Spectacle/contact-lens wearers should bring a retaining strap. Bring and declare any required medication to the instructor.
