ompetency Assurance Case Study: Oil Search

Overview : Papuan Oil Search Limited were modifying and expanding parts of existing plant and infrastructure within a project to provide feed gas to the ExxonMobil PNG LNG project near Port Moresby. The company required a successful, lower risk start-up and maintenance program involving an up-skilled workforce capable of meeting new operational challenges during a period of rapid change.

Solutions: LogiCamms’ Competency Assurance and Training team had the right solutions, and was engaged to deliver a scope including:

1. AGRP Commissioning Project – Design and development of operator and maintenance training modules for the new and modified equipment;
2. Hazardous Area Electrical Training – In-field, competency-based training in electrical equipment for hazardous areas provided for PNG nationals throughout 2010 and 2011, with further courses to be conducted in 2012;
3. Hazardous Area Awareness Flexible Delivery – E-Learning package providing an overview of the dangers presented by explosive atmospheres and the basics of the requirements to work safely in them; and
4. HSE Training Development – Design and development of various Health, Safety and Environmental training packages, including e-learning packages focussing on risk assessment tools and methodologies as part of Oil Search’s interface with the ExxonMobil PNG LNG Project.

“Even with AGRP’s extremely tight budget and schedule, they successfully produced quality documentation to enable site classroom training…I would have no hesitation in recommending the LogiCamms Team in providing training documentation and the delivery of training to any future clients.” Senior Project Engineer, Oil Search Limited.

We continue to provide Oil Search with risk-reducing, high value training and development solutions.

What is Competency Assurance?

The resources and energy industries in which we operate are increasingly demanding strategic and cost effective solutions to their workforce training needs. In response, we have aligned our capabilities in Competency Training and Competency Assurance to ensure a better offering across all our key areas of training.

For individual customers, this alignment won’t change the way courses are delivered and we continue to offer high quality training and e-learning solutions.

For companies, this closer alignment means a more cost effective suite of services and better access to our capability platform. Our combined leadership and integration of the know-how of our training experts will ensure commonality and a streamlined approach to developing and implementing training solutions.

We have provided our Competency Assurance service to multiple operations across Australia and internationally. A Competency Assurance Management System (CAMS) can specifically help implement valid and reliable controls to ensure all people on site for both greenfield or brownfield operations are competent to function in their respective roles.
