Description

A facilitated incident investigation game for offshore oil and gas. Four cases, seventy-five minutes each, run with a room, a whiteboard and no software.

Players spend a fixed budget of investigation hours on evidence they choose. They mark up a bowtie, build a five whys chain, and sign a causal finding. The game then scores them on coverage, barrier analysis, chain quality and causal accuracy, and shows them a blame index: the proportion of their signed causes that sit with an individual.

The argument this edition makes

Offshore removes the options that onshore investigations quietly assume: another route, another road, another bed, going home. Take those away and controls that looked adequate on paper stop being controls at all.

The four cases

• The Only Route (CU-H01) — Lifting operations. Dropped object over the only walkway.
• Four Minutes (CU-H02) — Well intervention. Muster into the release.
• Ninety Days (CU-H03) — Asset integrity. A temporary repair at day 1,400.
• Ten Days (CU-H04) — Accommodation. Reprisal in a place you cannot leave.

What is in the kit

Facilitator pack with a full key to every case, facilitator script, quick start, student guide, printable worksheets, worked examples, a participant certificate, and the promotional card and QR code for the free browser version. Twelve files.

The game itself is free and always will be. This kit is for running it as a facilitated session with a team, which is where the learning happens. Read the facilitator key the night before, not at the lectern, or you will telegraph.

There are ten editions

This kit is the offshore oil and gas edition. There are ten in all and forty cases: general, mining, construction, onshore oil and gas, offshore oil and gas, transport and warehousing, agriculture, power generation, rail, and psychosocial. Every one is $340 and every one has a free browser version you can play first. See all ten.

Running it across more than one facilitator, or putting the student material on your own LMS, needs an in-house site licence at $1,800 per edition. Licensing more than one edition is quoted on enquiry.
