Oilfield Driver Safety Program

COURSE OVERVIEW

The Oilfield Driver Safety Program is structured to fulfill the Alberta Government’s equivalency requirements for the Oilfield Driver Awareness (ODA) Course.

This program caters to drivers of both light-duty and semi-trailer vehicles within the oilfield industry.

For comprehensive training, it is advisable that drivers also undertake an Hours of Service program.

While the Oilfield Driver Safety Program includes an in-depth Fatigue Module, some organizations might prefer to supplement this with a dedicated fatigue program.

All these courses, including the Oilfield Driver Safety Program, are accessible online via Fleet Safety International.
