Atlas has announced three new translations of its IMIST program, now available in nine languages.

International minimum industry safety training (IMIST) is now available in Vietnamese, Thai and Indonesian, which will support the roll out of the global standard in safety across the world.

IMIST has been developed by oil and gas training standards body OPITO, delivered in partnership with Atlas via e-learning. Tailored to meet each region’s specific workforce, language and geographic needs, the course assesses basic safety knowledge in nine subject areas, helping the offshore industry meet regulatory compliance obligations, producing a safer workforce and workplace.

The addition of three new languages to the IMIST program will further ensure the estimated 1.5 million workers employed in exploration and production activities across the world are trained to the same standard throughout the industry, as well as helping improve competency in Southeast Asia.
