Further Offshore Emergency Training — the renewal course for BOSIET, completed every 4 years. Shorter than the initial BOSIET but retains all practical elements including the HUET pool session. Typically costs €400–€580. If a BOSIET has been expired for more than 6 months, some operators require a full BOSIET retake rather than FOET — always confirm with the operator before booking.
