In this VR simulator, you'll gain practical skills for working on chemical pipelines. The training teaches you how to prepare tools and implement safety measures, collaborate with colleagues, interpret pipeline schematics, shut down the pipeline, and execute lockout tagout procedures on valves. You'll also learn to wash the pipeline and set up safety measures for ongoing maintenance work. Using a variety of tools including PPEs, communication devices, valve blockers, pipes, project schematics, and pressure gauges, this immersive experience ensures you are well-prepared for real-world scenarios. The training adheres to NEBOSH, ISO 45001, and the IOGP's Operating Management System standards for the oil and gas industry, providing a rigorous and industry-compliant learning environment.

The VR Experience

The assessment begins in the control room, where you equip various personal protective equipment (PPE) suitable for handling chemicals in the pipeline. Once equipped, you receive your work permit to commence operations. Your initial task involves reading the pipeline schematics to accurately shut down the appropriate pumps and close the correct valves. Subsequently, you proceed to the machine room to perform manual lockout tagout procedures on the pipes designated for maintenance. Communication with the control room is maintained via walkie-talkie, and you use barricade tape to demarcate the maintenance area.

Following the setup, you release the residual pressure in the pipeline, monitoring it carefully with pressure gauges. Any chemical spills on the floor are cleaned using water. Upon completing these tasks, you return to the control room to report the successful conclusion of the maintenance operation.
