Helicopter Underwater Escape Training
- Helicopter Underwater Escape Training
Helicopter Underwater Egress Training in the United States, and Helicopter Underwater Escape Training in most other countries, (often abbreviated HUET, pronounced "hue-wet", "hue-way" or "you-way") is training provided to offshore oil and gas industry staff and military personnel who are regularly transported to and from facilities by helicopters. As the name implies, the purpose is to prepare them for emergency exit in the case of a crash landing over waterr. The training involves simulated sinking in a pool while rotating the training module upside down and focuses students on bracing for impact, identifying primary and secondary exit points, avoiding smoke inhalation, surfacing for air, and head count.
