Twenty-two officers of the Customs Petroleum Unit (CPU) of the Guyana Revenue Authority (GRA) have completed a Tropical Helicopter Underwater Egress Training (THUET) course designed to develop their knowledge of operating procedures in offshore safety and emergency response.
THUET is one of several escape simulation techniques for CPU and other officers who board any Floating Production Storage and Offloading (FPSO) vessel, the GRA explained in a press release issued on Wednesday.
An initial batch comprising seven (7) officers, including Deputy Commis-sioner of CPU Lancelot Wills, benefitted from the training in January of this year. In July a second batch comprising fifteen (15) officers underwent the training.
