Tulsa Safety Training for Refineries, Hangars and River Terminals

The old Oil Capital still refines fuel, repairs airliners and ships cargo down the Arkansas River. Tulsa safety training from Safety Is A Mindset can come to your site, since Oklahoma is part of our onsite region.

Energy Roots, Aerospace Branches

Tulsa's skyline was built on oil money, and energy still matters: refineries operate on the west bank of the Arkansas River, and the city is home to pipeline, midstream and oilfield equipment companies. Over time the economy branched out. One of the largest airline maintenance bases in the world is in Tulsa, along with a wider cluster of aerospace manufacturing and repair. The Tulsa Port of Catoosa connects the region to the Mississippi River system, and manufacturers across the metro make everything from heat exchangers to food products.

Those industries share some of the most serious hazards in general industry: flammable atmospheres, confined spaces, hazardous energy and work at height. They also share a need for crews who can respond medically in the minutes before help arrives, especially on large sites where an ambulance may take time to reach a remote unit or hangar.

Oklahoma is a federal OSHA state for private employers, and refineries are additionally subject to OSHA's Process Safety Management standard (1910.119), which carries its own training requirements for operators and contractors.

Plan a Tulsa Onsite Day

Gather two or three departments into one visit and cover CPR in the morning and AVIRT in the afternoon. Discounts start at 10 participants, and the needs assessment costs nothing.

Green Country Weather and the Workday

Northeast Oklahoma sits in the path of spring supercells, and Tulsa has seen damaging tornadoes, hail and straight-line winds. Summers are hot and humid, which is hard on refinery turnarounds and outdoor port work, and ice storms can knock out power across the metro for days. Our heat stress course and emergency preparedness training help crews recognize problems before they turn into injuries.
