New Industrial Skills Course
701-05 Introduction to Crude Oil.
Crude oil, also called petroleum or oil, is a naturally occurring liquid made up of hydrocarbons found in various geological formations around the Earth. It exists in a variety of states. Oil businesses spend trillions of dollars in its extraction, refinement, and trade every year. Petroleum can be used to make many petroleum products. It has been used in some form or another since ancient Mesopotamia. Although advancements have been made toward replacing petroleum with more renewable resources, it remains one of the most widely used forms of energy in the world.
The Introduction to Crude Oil training course defies what crude oil is. It describes the different types and characteristics of crude oil and how it is extracted. It also discusses the various uses for crude oil and crude oil products.
Introduction to Crude Oil is part of the Petroleum Refining training series.

WHITEPAPER: SIF: Serious Injury or Fatality Incident Determination and Reporting Guidelines
Injury and illness prevention used to focus on overall reduction of incidents; you reduce any and all accidents, you reduce serious and fatal ones too. While that is true at a high level, it’s not the most effective and targeted way to prevent workplace fatalities or serious injuries.
A Serious Injury or Fatality (SIF) event is an incident or near miss that has the potential to, or does, result in a fatal or life-altering injury or illness. By identifying SIFs, companies can focus injury prevention initiatives where they matter most, expand their understanding of workforce threats, and potentially prevent the next fatality.
