GWO Advance Rescue Refresher Training / V5 02052025
Practise how to perform an evacuation (dummy), with the rescue device in a passive setup for evacuation outside of the tower, from the WTG nacelle to a primary assembly area (ground or transition piece) Practise how to perform an evacuation (dummy), with the rescue device in an active setup for evacuation inside the tower, from the WTG nacelle to a primary assembly area (ground or transition piece), carrying the rope bag with them Practise how to perform an evacuation (dummy) from a transition piece to a secondary assembly area (vessel), by transitioning the rescue device setup configuration from an active setup (descent inside tower to transition piece) to a passive setup for descent from the transition piece to the vessel, by:
a. pulling the rope’s end from the rope bag through the device and attaching it to the injured persons harness (enabling a reverse passive setup) and
b. attaching the rescue device on the transition piece ensuring it is within reach and can be controlled without the risk of a fall from height and deviating the configuration over the transition piece crane boom (or similar) by the use of a pulley
Practise how to reduce the risks associated with manual handling and apply further control measures where applicable
RESCUE FROM ENCLOSED SPACE
110 min.
There are several locations on the turbine where occasionally work needs to take place with reduced horizontal and vertical space. Such as in the basement/transition piece, yaw section, transformer room or between canopy and generator of a direct drive WTG. The aim of this lesson is for the participants to be able to apply various techniques to evacuate an injured person from an area with restricted manoeuvrability, filled with sufficient simulated assets, to a location where first aid can be administered.
After having successfully completed this lesson, the participants can:
88) Take responsibility to apply the techniques necessary to successfully rescue the injured person from the enclosed space, in a controlled manner (Ability, intermediate level)
89) Show interest in how to assess and determine rescue strategy (relevant rescue method, technique, certified equipment, and required personnel) in an enclosed space scenario (Ability, basic level)
