A Helideck Emergency Response Team Member manages critical safety and rescue operations during helicopter movements on offshore installations or remote sites. You might work on oil rigs, gas platforms, or large maritime vessels. You will focus on fire suppression, casualty extrication, and hazard containment to protect personnel and assets. By maintaining specialised firefighting equipment and participating in regular drills, you ensure the team is prepared for aircraft incidents or fuel spills in high-pressure environments.
Helideck Emergency Response Team Members play a vital role in offshore survival. You must be physically fit and disciplined, with the ability to remain calm during life-threatening emergencies. You will collaborate with the Helicopter Landing Officer and medical staff to execute rapid rescue plans and ensure all safety protocols are strictly followed.
