To work safely offshore, a valid medical certificate is mandatory. At OmniHealth we conduct both the OEUK Offshore Medical (formerly OGUK)<\/strong> and the Dutch NL Offshore Medical Examination<\/strong>, fully aligned with the most recent industry standards.<\/p>

Both frameworks were updated in 2025. Want to understand precisely what these changes mean for your sector or role? Our in-depth articles explain the updates clearly:<\/p>

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tOffshore work takes place under conditions very different from those onshore: long shifts, physical demands, limited medical resources, and helicopter transport. For this reason, a current and formally recognised medical examination is mandatory.\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Rotational schedules of two weeks, 12-hour shifts, restricted medical facilities and emergency evacuation procedures all place specific demands on physical and mental resilience.
A proper medical assessment is therefore essential to ensure safe deployment in an environment with limited margins for error.<\/p>

At OmniHealth, we perform all offshore medicals according to the latest international standards. In some cases, a seafarer medical<\/strong> is also required; when that applies, we schedule both in a single visit and issue all certificates immediately.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
