BISMARCK (KFGO) – A program to streamline required oilfield safety training in North Dakota has drawn thousands of people, but some say the training is redundant.
More than 16,000 people have participated in the One Basin-One Way program, to combine separate oilfield safety topics into one program.
Alma Cook, owner of Williston-based Cook Compliance Solutions, said missing work to complete duplicative training is problematic because it consumes contractors’ time and money. Steve Braden, chairman of the North Dakota Petroleum Council’s One Basin-One Way Committee, says his group is trying to consolidate the training.
