What is an OEUK medical?
To work in the offshore industry, personnel are usually required to undergo an Offshore Energies UK (OEUK) medical. The OEUK has recently changed from Oil and Gas UK (OGUK) medical.
Once passed, the OEUK medical certificate is typically valid for two years. However, in certain cases, it may be valid for a shorter period if additional medical monitoring is necessary.
If you need a CA-EBS Fitness to train certificate, we can do this during your OEUK appointment.
What is involved
You will be asked to complete a questionnaire and provide a urine sample (this is not a drugs test).
One of our friendly and professional nurses will do your height, weight, blood pressure, hearing and vision tests.
You will then see the doctor for a medical examination.
What you need to bring
Photo ID – driving licence, passport or discharge book
If you wear contact lenses, please wear your glasses on the day.
Avoid loud noise for 16 hours before your medical, as this may affect your hearing test.
Please bring any information about medication, medical problems or hospital admissions since your last medical.
Copes of medical records from your previous medical if you can.
Clothes you are comfortable wearing to do a fitness test as this is sometimes needed as part of medical.
A dental certificate may be required. It is advisable to see your dentist at least annually.
