To be eligible for enrolment in the Helifuel System Refuelling course, you must abide by the OPITO Helicopter Refuelling Training Standard Learner Pre-requisites;

A.2 Learner pre-requisites for the Helideck Refuelling Training standard
The prerequisites for the Helicopter Refuelling Training are one of the following:
a) An OPITO or equivalent Helideck Operations Initial Training (HOIT) Certificate (achieved within the past two years)
b) A valid OPITO or equivalent HDA or HLO Workplace Competence Assessment Certificate
c) A valid OPITO or equivalent Helideck Emergency Response Team Member Training (HERTM) or Further HERTM Certificate
d) A valid OPITO or equivalent Helideck Emergency Response Team Leader (HERTL) or Further HERTL Training Certificate
OR
An valid industry recognised certificate or qualification which ensures and understanding of offshore Helideck Operations.


A.3 Physical and Stressful Demands of the Helicopter Refuelling Training
Training activities contained within this standard may include physically demanding and potentially stressful elements. All personnel who participate in such activities must be capable of participating fully.
Therefore, OPITO or equivalent compliant training centres are required, as a minimum, to ensure that prior to participating in practical exercises the learner is declared fit, in that they:
a) Possess an employing company approved medical certificate equivalent to an offshore medical certificate.
