MDPC provides opportunities to variety of training courses to learn worldwide standard firefighting through classroom training and a field training using actual fire.

MDPC-ICS

MDPC has adopted Incident Command System (ICS), which is an established worldwide standard for the incident management. It customizes the system to “MDPC-ICS” using MPDC past experiences and knowledge. To share the worldwide standard with private companies, MDPC provides trainings/exercises based on MDPC-ICS and provides supports to make oil spill contingency plans to the petrochemical complexes.

LDSS is an incident response service for inland petrochemical factories. If HM spill and fire occur at an inland factory, the spill immediately spreads through trenches, roads, rivers. In that case, the spill may generates health and environmental impact at totally different location from the source of spill. MDPC has made a standby contract with the inland petrochemical facilities and provides not only an incident response service but also HM trainings for the facility workers in times of peace.

ICS training service

It is difficult to handle the incident beyond your area of responsibility.MDPC provides ICS training to the customers. Through the ICS training and an incident simulation, MDPC shares skills and knowledge for the incident management and the issue management though “lessons learned” .
The training and simulation are customized for each customers.
