SBM Offshore Guyana’s trainee technicians have completed training at the Facility Simulator (FacTor) Unit of the Guyana Technical Training College Incorporated (GTTCI). According to a release from the company, the graduates were honoured during a small ceremony at the GTTCI on July 5 in Port Mourant, Berbice, where the facility is located.
It explained that the trainees underwent a nine-month practical skills training programme in the instrumentation, production, electrical, and mechanical fields at FacTor, honing their skills and further building their capacity to support offshore operations.
The 24 Guyanese form the second cohort of SBM Offshore Guyana’s Trainee Technician Programme and the inaugural batch of students to receive training at the GTTCI. They will soon progress to the next stage of training onboard the Liza Unity Floating, Production, Storage and Offloading (FPSO) vessel, where they will be further exposed to practical training in their respective fields, it added.
