"The most impressive online training courses I have seen in this industry."
Decommissioning is one of those parts of the industry a lot of people hear about, but never really get a proper explanation of. It affects all offshore assets and therefore everyone that works on them, but for many people it still feels like a bit of a grey area.
There is a new training released at the tail end of 2025 called Lean Decom, it is a online decommissioning training course which is one of the most impressive online training courses I have seen in this industry.
The team at Offshore Survival reviewed the Lean Decom course and were genuinely impressed by the quality and usefulness of the training.
Decommissioning is not easy to learn. For most people, it takes years to build up a proper understanding. This course brings that learning together in a structured way and helps you get up to speed much faster.
The production quality is far higher than what you would normally expect from oil and gas training. Strong visuals, well-structured lessons, and input from experienced industry professionals make the course engaging and easy to follow.
The course does more than explain the subject. It helps you spot opportunities, understand common pitfalls, and build ideas you can bring into real conversations and real work. That makes you more useful and more valuable as you grow in decommissioning.
How it works, what the jobs are, who to contact, agency list are etc. Ideal for people who want to work offshore but have no experience, also useful for people in the industry for ideas to change jobs. It’s 38 pages as of Rev 3.
Check the current BOSIET Prices. Offshore survival course training in the UK. Previously called RGIT, it’s one of the course certificates you need to work on oil rigs and vessels.
A list of oil/gas recruitment agencies made by offshore workers. These agencies handle rigs, vessels, wind farms, anything you can think of regarding work offshore, it’s on this list.
For the GWO wind industry, working on the construction of wind turbines, both onshore and offshore. See our list of GWO training locations where you can take the ‘wind turbine’ offshore survival courses.
Since it’s a very closed industry that nobody sees, let’s shine some light on some of these oil rig jobs, and if you have no experience offshore then you’ll find it interesting. Before you do your oil rig training courses, have a read to see if you see a job you like, and learn a little about what jobs are available.
Find an OGUK certified medical practice in Aberdeen and the surrounding area. This is the offshore medical certificate that recognised internationally.
I (the main editor of this website) have worked offshore in both oil/gas and the wind turbine industry for 10 years.
I started putting notes together during some downtime, and over the course of a few trips offshore, and it gathered momentum pretty fast, people wanted to chip in some info, and now, it became a growing resource for people interested in the oil/gas/renewables industry.
Identities of contributors are somewhat hidden, just in case I have written something or used an image that might affect my, or other peoples jobs.
