Due to the volatile nature of petroleum products, an incident requiring abandonment of a platform or rig is always a possibility. "Emergency Platform, Rig & Vessel Abandonment," Program One in the Marine Survival Safety video series, trains personnel to respond without panic when an emergency abandonment is required. The video covers modern safety equipment and communications systems, and discusses both controlled and uncontrolled abandonments. Other topics covered include establishing priorities, means of escape, use of station bills, drills, alarms, water entry, rescue, and the dangers of the marine environment.
