Rigger Training Stage 1 (OPITO Approved) Course Overview Rigging operations involve the use of lifting equipment to lift and transfer loads, often in restricted areas where a crane cannot be sited. Rigging and lifting operations are carried out by riggers and other disciplines including operations technicians, deck crew and drill crew. To ensure these operations can be carried out safely, it is vital that operatives of lifting equipment and accessories for lifting, are aware of the safe and correct use of equipment, and the probable consequences if safe and best practice is not followed. Course Structure The course is a mix of theory and practical with a bias towards practical exercises, and delegates are evaluated by means of an examination. Prerequisites None. Target Audience Personnel with a responsibility to carry out rigging and lifting operations whether routine or complex lifts. The course is also beneficial to personnel such as supervisors and HSE advisors, with a responsibility for proper planning and appropriate supervision of lifting operations, and persons with a responsibility for issue and control of lifting equipment and accessories.

Air Leakage

Leakage is the single largest waste of energy associated with compressed air systems with rates exceeding 50% of site consumption being common.

The table below illustrates losses experienced within a typical system.

Annual Cost of Air leaks

Ultrasonic Surveys

Detecting leaks is a straightforward matter and can be achieved by using the old fashioned soapy water technique. This works but is slow, messy and cannot be performed from a distance.

Why not let Logis-Tech conduct an ultrasonic survey or invest in an ultrasonic leak detector?

Air Leak Surveys

Good ultrasonic detectors can highlight leaks from over 50 feet away even in noisy plant areas enabling you to complete a survey in very little time and save a fortune in compressed air costs.

Example Results from an Ultrasonic Leak Detection Survey
