Training is a major priority for BOURBON. For all its business sectors, the company is investing in the ongoing improvement of its personnel skills. The men and women of the BOURBON teams must constantly demonstrate their expertise and their technical knowledge of processes, everywhere in the world.

As a result, Bourbon Offshore is developing training programs specifically adapted to our contracts and production sites.
