Offshore crane driver

Description

Cranes are used in an offshore environment to bring loads from a ship/barge onto a platform, loads from a platform onto a ship/barge and to move loads around the platform. Apart from the exposure to weather, the significant difference with offshore crane driving is that loads are lifted to/from a surface which is in constant, three dimensional motion, so requiring additional skills from the crane driver.

This skills set covers the competencies required by persons working as crane drivers in an offshore environment.

Competency is required to be achieved prior to undertaking this role – see units for details.
