The first few minutes of an incident are critical to escalation prevention and can be pivotal in determining a safe and successful outcome. With a particular focus on remote areas and offshore installations, our MEM training provides coaching in command, control and communications.

We will impart the vital initial response skills that are required to make under-pressure decisions and effectively manage your asset’s resources during a crisis. Our purpose-built, dedicated MEM suite realistically replicates an emergency command centre during a major incident. 

Operating a multitude of different incident scenarios in a true-to-life environment, we can effectively ensure that your leaders are prepared to take the appropriate action should the worst ever occur.
