Development and evaluation of an offshore oil and gas Emergency Response Focus Board
Abstract: Introduction: The primary objective of this research was to explore the use of an interactive whiteboard as an Emergency Response Focus Board (ERFB) for offshore emergency response teams (ERT) during a training and assessment process. Methods: Thirty-seven participants completed simulation testing in a randomized study design with two visual display conditions (static and dynamic display). Outcome measures included speed and accuracy of response to situation awareness questions presented orally during three separate simulation freezes, and self-rating of performance. Results: Results indicate that the type of ERFB display significantly influenced the speed and accuracy of responses. Qualitative results indicate that situation awareness was increased when using the dynamic ERFB. Conclusions: It can be concluded that the dynamic ERFB offers an objective measure of performance and as a consequence, it is recommended that dynamic ERFBs be implemented into future offshore emergency response assessment training. Relevance to industry: Given the enormous amount of information available during an emergency, the dynamic ERFB offers an improved system for data logging, consolidation of information, and greater comprehension of relevant resource allocation factors.

Archival ERT training videos were analyzed for information that was transcribed on a dry-erase whiteboard (focus board) during simulated offshore emergencies.

It is difficult to identify precisely which attributes of human performance are related to slower reaction times or final selections made during decision making tasks.need to address real-world constraints that are likely to be experienced in an installation control room.a larger sample size may be necessary to identify further changes in performance.
The dynamic ERFB offers an objective measure of performance andas a consequence, it is recommended that dynamic ERFBs be implemented into future offshore emergencyresponse assessment training.
Ethical approval for the research was obtained from the Dalhousie University Health Sciences Research Ethics Board.
