From vessel/ship to platform

If you have a valid STCW Basic safety course for seafarers, it is not necessary to take the full GSK Basic safety course for oil workers if you are going to work on a platform.

This upgrade course covers the modules you need to obtain certification from Offshore Norge, where you will go through theory and practical exercises in personal rescue techniques, preventive fire protection, and basic first aid.
