The Advanced Training Institute (ATI) is a premier training institute of ONGC, with focus on promoting Safety, Occupational Health and Environment Management practices and standards in the Petroleum Sector as well as other High Hazard Industries.

Advanced Marine Aviation and Sea Survival Training

The A-MAST training program, developed by ONGC for offshore personnel stands out as a unique and comprehensive training initiative designed to equip participants with the zenith of high-octane skills necessary to sustain or survive adverse sea conditions. The training includes a specialized module on helicopter safety and escape, emphasizing the use of the Compressed Air Emergency Breathing System (CA-EBS) and practical escape techniques under simulated emergency conditions. Additional CA-EBS training in water enhances preparedness for real-life scenarios. Overall, the A-MAST training program aims to foster a culture of safety, preparedness, and resilience among offshore personnel, thereby minimizing risks and enhancing operational safety and effectiveness.

This three-day program is meticulously crafted to simulate real-life scenarios, ensuring that participants are well-prepared to handle any challenges they may encounter at sea, especially in the aftermath of a chopper crash.
