What is an OGUK Medical?

An OGUK medical is a mandatory health assessment required for anyone working offshore in the UK oil and gas sector. It's a comprehensive evaluation designed to ensure that individuals are physically and mentally fit to perform their duties in a demanding offshore environment.

Why is it Mandatory?

The Oil & Gas UK (OGUK) has set specific medical standards to safeguard the health and safety of offshore workers. By requiring OGUK medicals, the industry aims to:

  • Reduce workplace risks: Identify potential health conditions that could compromise an individual's ability to work safely offshore.
  • Ensure worker well-being: Protect workers from the hazards associated with the offshore environment.
  • Comply with regulations: Meet the legal requirements set by the UK government and industry bodies.

Our OGUK Medical Assessment Process

Our experienced medical professionals will conduct a thorough assessment, including:

  • Vision and Hearing Tests: To ensure your ability to perceive visual and auditory signals in the offshore environment
  • Lung Function Evaluation: To assess your respiratory health and suitability for working in potentially hazardous conditions
  • ECG (Electrocardiogram): To check for any heart abnormalities
  • Urinalysis: To screen for potential health issues
  • Medical history review: A detailed discussion of your past and current health conditions
  • General Health Assessment: To examine for a full systems review.

Our assessments and reports are typically completed within 7 days We strive to minimise any inconvenience and ensure a smooth experience.

Upon successful completion of the assessment, we will provide you with an official OGUK medical certificate. This document is essential for securing offshore employment and demonstrates your fitness to work in the industry.

FAQ

The frequency of OGUK medicals depends on your role and the specific requirements of your employer. Generally, offshore workers are required to undergo medical assessments every two years. However, some positions may necessitate more frequent checks, especially those involving high-risk activities or individuals with certain medical conditions.

Yes, it's possible to pass an OGUK medical even with a pre-existing medical condition. The key is to disclose all relevant information to the medical professional conducting the assessment. They will evaluate your condition and determine if it poses any significant risk to your safety or the safety of others in the offshore environment. If necessary, they may recommend accommodations or restrictions to ensure that you can work safely.

When attending your OGUK medical appointment, it's important to bring the following:

  • Identification: A valid form of ID, such as a passport or driving licence.
  • Previous Medical Records: Any relevant medical records, including previous OGUK medical certificates, immunisation records, and information about any existing health conditions.
  • Medication List: A list of all medications you are currently taking, including prescription and over-the-counter drugs.
  • Glasses or Contact Lenses: If you wear corrective lenses, bring them to the appointment.

By being prepared with this information, you can help ensure a smooth and efficient assessment process.
