A training provider to the offshore energy industry has launched a new centre dedicated to upskilling drilling workers in the oil and gas industry.
AIS Survivex, which operates a North Shields site, has invested in drilling simulator technology to offer level three and four qualifications accredited by the International Well Control Forum.
The new facility - which will become the only UK centre offering regular approved training outside of Aberdeen - is affiliated to AIS Survivex's Well Control Centre of Excellence.
