 FOREWORD

The Oil Industry in India is 100 years old. Because of various collaboration
agreements, a variety of international codes, standards and practices have been in
vogue. Standardisation in design philosophies and operating and maintenance
practices at a national level was hardly in existence. This coupled with feed back
from some serious accidents that occurred in the recent past in India and abroad,
emphasised the need for the industry to review the existing state of art in
designing, operating and maintaining oil and gas installations.

With this in view, the Ministry of Petroleum and Natural Gas in 1986 constituted
a Safety Council assisted by the Oil Industry Safety Directorate (OISD) staffed from
within the industry in formulating and implementing a series of self regulatory
measures aimed at removing obsolescence, standardiising and upgrading the
existing standards to ensure safe operations. Accordingly, OISD constituted a
number of functional committees of experts nominated from the industry to draw up
standards and guidelines on various subjects.

The present standard on “Safety Health & Environment Training for Exploration
& Production (Upstream) Personnel” was prepared by the Functional Committee on
“Safety Health & Environment Training for Exploration & Production (Upstream)
Personnel”. This document is based on the accumulated knowledge and
experience of industry members and the various national and international codes
and practices.

This standard is meant to be used as supplement and not as replacement for

existing codes and practices.

It is hoped that provisions of this standard if implemented objectively, may go a

long way to improve the safety health & environment and reduce accidents in Oil
and Gas Industry (Upstream)). Users are cautioned that no standard can be a
substitute for the judgement of responsible and experienced engineer.

Suggestions are invited from the users after it is put into practice to
improve the document further. Suggestions for amendments to this document
should be addressed to the Coordinator, Committee on “Safety Health &
Environment Training for Exploration & Production (Upstream) Personnel”, Oil
th
Industry Safety Directorate, 7 Floor, New Delhi House, 27, Barakhamba Road,
New Delhi - 110 001.

This standard in no way supercedes the statutory requirements of bodies like

DGMS,IBR. CCE, Factory Inspectorate or any other Government Body which must
be followed as applicable.

 SAFETY HEALTH AND ENVIRONMENT TRAINING FOR EXPLORATION &
PRODUCTION (UPSTREAM) PERSONNEL
1.0 INTRODUCTION
Oil and gas operations like Drilling,
Production, Refining, Transportation and
Distribution are hazardous. Therefore,
safety education and training receives great
attention in the Oil Industry. A variety of
training courses are conducted by the Oil
Companies intended to develop the skills,
know-how and safety consciousness of
employees.
This document attempts to
standardise the minimum safety inputs,
which should be included in the Safety,
Health, Environment (SHE) Exploration &
Production (E&P) Training for Personnel.
It is however recognised that there
could be areas of training other than those
identified in this document, where the need
to specify minimum safety inputs would also
arise. This document provides a basic
framework for development of suitable
training programmes.
Compliance with the requirements
given in this document shall go a long way in
ensuring safe operations of the installations
in the upstream oil industry.
2.0 SCOPE
The scope of this document covers
the SHE aspects of Exploration activities.
Functional training requirements intended to
develop the skills for performance of jobs in
the respective areas are excluded.
Guidelines on preparation and
execution of typical training programmes use
of appropriate training techniques and
evaluation of the effectiveness of training
programmes are discussed.
This document is in no way
supersedes the training requirements,
stipulated by statutory bodies like the
Directorate General of Shipping,
International Maritime Organisation or any
other government authorities.
1
3.0 Training Needs
The training needs must be identified
suitably at every work centre for the
individuals & documented and informed to
the concerned training centres.
4.0 TRAINING TECHNIQUES
Appropriate training techniques on
the following basis should be selected and
used in order to attain the objectives of the
various training courses outlined in this
document:
The techniques and their application
are given below:
i) Demonstration:
The right way to do a job shall
invariably be demonstrated to the
trainees in the first place. The right
way is also the safe way. Hazards due
to wrong procedures, short cuts and
their adverse effects etc. should also
be highlighted.
ii) Coaching:
This technique should be used to
develop individual skills, knowledge
and attitude of the participants. This
technique is most effective when a
one-to-one relationship exists
between the trainer and trainee and
progressively less effective as it
increases to one-to-two, three etc.
iii) Do-it-Yourself Training:
When the situation demands that the
trainee needs to learn himself and
gain confidence while doing the job,
this technique should be used. The
trainer should monitor the
performance & provide help as &
when necessary.
iv) Lecture:
This technique should be applied
when it is required to transfer
information to an audience with
 controlled content and time, using · evoke correct and prompt response
audio / visual aids. in any emergency situation.

v) Case Study: · The objective of the course will be

that on completion of the course, the

group.
iii) Climate Setting:

2
 Effective learning requires setting a
climate in a training situation that is
conducive to learning. The following
factors which help create such
climate, should be considered:
· Persons are more open to learning
if, they are encouraged for better
interaction and are not
embarrassed or ridiculed.
· Participation in group exercises
where trainees see themselves as
mutual helpers rather than rivals.
· Mutual trust and friendliness
between trainees and faculty.
· Care of human needs such as
peaceful & conducive
environment, comfortable seats,
adequate breaks between training
sessions, proper lighting and
ventilation.
iv) Course Design
The course design should include
following factors:
a) Programme layout
b) Selection of faculty
c) Arranging course material / training
aids
d) Selection of training techniques (for
details see Section 4.0)
e) Field Visits: In case of new entrants,
safety devices & procedures should
be explained at site also. Adequate
time for field visits should be allotted.
Field visits during refresher course
may also be arranged wherever
necessary.
f) Evaluation methodology
(for details see Section
7.0)
5.2 GUIDELINES FOR FACULTY:
i) Essential Factors:
The faculty should take into
consideration following factors while
preparing and presenting a topic:
· Course objective
· Introduction of trainer & trainees
3
· Target group (intended for)
· Time available
· Feedback from earlier
programmes
· Sequence and structuring of training
material
· Pre & Post evaluation
ii) Training/Lecture notes
Well written notes are useful training
materials and should be made
available for ensuring easier learning
by the trainees. Since a substantial
portion of the courses are to be
covered in class rooms, it is very
essential that training notes are
carefully prepared.
A training note should primarily
comprise of three sections as
follows:
· Introduction : Get the trainees
ready to learn & previews what is to
be learnt.
· Explanation : Presents the
information to be learnt, including
examples and practices
· Summary : Reviews the
information taught, and helps
trainees remember and apply it.
The following matters should be
considered while preparing a training
note:
a) Introduction Section:
· Tell the trainee how the content will
help him
· Cite authors, research or industry
practice on which the notes are
based. This is to establish
credibility.
· State the objectives in terms of
skills, know-how the trainees will
gain.
· State how the information being
taught is related to what trainees
already know.
· Present the information to be learnt
in brief.
b) Explanation Section:

· Divide the total information into
groups, each with a heading.
Research shows that trainees can
perceive not more than seven pieces
of information at one time. Only the
information that one needs to know,
as related to the training objectives,
should be included in the notes.
Trainees must not be burdened with
unnecessary information.
· Combine text with illustrations,
diagrams, photographs, audio /
visual etc.
· Give examples, typical instances of
the concepts being taught.
· Use tables, charts, highlight key
points, provide double space
between typed lines that help rapid
scanning, reading & retrieval.
· Provide exercises or questions at the
end for practice.
· Include feedback to indicate whether
the response to the exercise was
correct or not.
iii) Summary Section:
· Give a summary of the information,
but in a slightly different way.
Highlight the
key points.
· Give a job-aid / checklist /
references of documents that can
be used by trainees back on the
job.
iv) Group discussions
Group exercise should be included /
designed based on the course
contents and group presentations
should be encouraged.
v) Concluding Session
In this session the feedback would be
evaluated for continuos improvement.
6.0 COURSE OUTLINE
4
This section specifies the minimum
SHE inputs to be included in SHE
training course, for various
categories of employees in selected
areas through individual Course
Modules. Hazardous / high risk
operation should be specifically
highlighted indicating the risks
involved and precautions to be
undertaken.
The following points shall also be
kept in view:
i) SHE Officer / Fire Officer’s
Training:
It is likely that a new incumbent may
not have been exposed to the type
of SHE training prescribed in this
standard before taking up his
assignment. It shall therefore be
ensured that such persons are also
exposed to the relevant training
programmes.
ii) Refresher Courses:
Organisations themselves should
decide how often the refresher
courses should be held but the
periodicity of a refresher should not
be later than three years.

Attainment of SHE Objectives

7.0 EVALUATION OF SHE The impact of the training programmes on

TRAINING PROGRAMMES
The evaluation of SHE training programmes
in terms of their overall effectiveness
towards attainment of course objectives and
changes necessary for improvement, should
be based on the criteria and techniques
explained in this section.
7.1 BASIC CRITERIA
The following basic criteria should be
adopted for evaluation of any training
programme:
i) Participant’s reaction- Participant’s
reaction should be obtained in respect of
the course content, training methods/
techniques used by the faculty, quality of
course material etc.
ii) Change in participant’s
learning. It should be ascertained whether
participants’ learning in terms of
knowledge and skills in specific areas or
activities e.g. safe operatingand
maintenance procedures,fire prevention
and control, etc. have improved after the
training.
iii) Change in Participant’s attitude
It should be checked in what ways and to
what degree / extent the attitude of the
the performance standards of the
organisation and attainment of tangible
results with respect to SHE should be
evaluated.
7.2 TECHNIQUES
i) Participants’ Reaction
Typical course review / participant
reaction forms for evaluating training
courses are given in Annexure I to III which
should be filled in by each participant at the
end of training programmes and the trainer
or course director should make desirable
changes / modifications in the content,
instructional techniques, etc. as required. In
addition, the training department of the
organisation should also design a pre & post
training follow-up questionnaire and obtain
feed back about on-the-job application of
knowledge and skills imparted. The
questionnaire should be filled in by the
participants immediately & at the end of
programme and about three months after
the programme. It is recommended that
participants’ reactions be kept anonymous to
obtain honest reactions. After attending the
training course, the trainee should submit a
brief to the controlling officer about skills
/knowhow obtained.
ii) Change in Participant’s Learning

GUIDELINES FOR PREPARING OBJECTIVE TESTS

1. Use objective items e.g. Multiple-choice or True-False rather than essay questions.

2. Use items that are important in terms of the knowledge the participant should have.
Again items should reflect specific learning objectives.

3. Items should get at the participants’ understanding of material not just rote memory.

4. Keep the reading level relatively simple so that the participants’ scores reflect their
knowledge of the subject rather than their level of reading comprehension.

5. Make sure that there is only one correct answer in a True False or Multiple-choice
item.

6. Use a random patern of correct answers: that is, do not have a set patern of correct
answers (e.g. Five True items followed by five False ones).

7. Vary the items in difficulty — a few relatively simple, a few fairly difficult — with most
somewhere in between.

8. Keep the items discrete: the answer to one item should not signal the answer to
another, nor should answering one item correctly be contingent upon answering a
previous one.

9. Beware of giving clues to the correct answer. In a multiple-choice item, for instance,
do not give away the correct answer by making it clearly longer or shorter than the
other alternatives.

10. Make responding to the items as simple as possible. Keep in mind that you are trying
to measure the individual’s knowledge of the subject and not the ability to follow
complex directions.
