OEUK Medical + Fit to Train / CA-EBS Cardiff
Complete your OEUK offshore medical and Fit to Train / CA-EBS assessment in one Cardiff appointment where both are required for offshore survival training.
OEUK Medical + Fit to Train / CA-EBS
The OEUK Medical assesses your medical fitness to work offshore.
A Fit to Train / CA-EBS assessment is a separate fitness-to-train assessment for workers who need to participate in shallow-water compressed-air emergency breathing system exercises during offshore survival training.
Not every OEUK Medical requires Fit to Train. It is normally needed where specified by your training provider, employer or mobilisation requirement.
Combined Appointment
£255
Complete both assessments during the same appointment at Marina Medicals Cardiff.
This avoids arranging the OEUK Medical and Fit to Train assessment separately.
Where both assessments are satisfactory and no further medical evidence is required, the relevant certification can normally be completed promptly.
What Happens During an OEUK + Fit to Train Appointment?
Your appointment combines the standard OEUK offshore medical with the Fit to Train / CA-EBS assessment required for relevant offshore survival training.

Medical and occupational history, relevant clinical examination and the assessments required for OEUK offshore medical certification.
