InfiVR’s IOGP Line of Fire Immersive and AI-Powered Safety Trainings
Transforming how workers understand, react to, and avoid Line of Fire hazards through experience, behaviour, and ownership
InfiVR’s immersive and AI-powered safety training strengthens how workers apply Life Saving Rules [LSR] and IOGP Safety Rules in real world situations by moving beyond theory into practical experience. Through realistic 3D, VR & AI based scenarios aligned with standards from the International Association of Oil and Gas Producers, Workers learn to recognise Line of Fire risks, react confidently in dynamic environments, and build strong behavioural ownership of safety. This approach helps teams convert safety knowledge into instinctive, real time decision making on site.
Understanding the Reality of Line of Fire hazards
The International Association of Oil and Gas Producers IOGP has built its guidelines, standards, IOGP Safety Rules, and Life Saving Rules LSR from decades of real industry incidents and safety learnings, with a strong focus on preventing high consequence Line of Fire hazards such as moving equipment, suspended loads, dropped objects and unsafe proximity to machinery. While these rules are practical and proven, their real effectiveness depends on a worker’s ability to recognise fast changing risks caused by movement, blind spots, stored energy, and sudden operational shifts, factors that are difficult to fully understand through classroom training alone. Immersive learning helps bridge this gap by turning written procedures into realistic experiences, enabling workers to visualise how hazards develop in real time, strengthen situational awareness, and apply safety rules more effectively in actual worksite conditions.
Why Conventional Line of Fire Training methods often falls short?
Before VR existed, most organisations relied on classroom inductions, power point slides and safety posters, 2D videos and animations, supervisor briefings, occasional mock drills, on the job demonstrations. These methods are important, but they struggle with one limitation.
Challenges in existing Safety Training methods:
Line of Fire is a spatial hazard, but Conventional training training is mostly theoretical. Areal hazard rarely looks like the diagram printed in manuals. Workers may understand the rule but still misjudge the swing radius of a suspended load or fail to detect a blind spot behind moving equipment. Conventional methods also struggle to recreate real motion, pressure release, sudden shifts or falling objects. Mock drills help, but they cannot simulate many high risk scenarios without introducing actual danger. This gap between knowing and experiencing is where behaviour fails, not because workers don’t care, but because humans learn behaviour through real examples, visual scenarios, and instinctive reactions.
What InfiVR has built to Address Line of Fire Risks
InfiVR’s immersive VR and AI-powered safety training shifts workers from passive awareness to proactive hazard hunting by helping them experience Line of Fire risks in realistic environments aligned with IOGP principles and IOGP Safety Rules. Instead of memorising procedures, workers build instinctive decision making through real time simulations where hazards unfold naturally and mistakes become safe learning moments. By tracking behaviour such as reaction time and unsafe movements, the training promotes continuous improvement, strengthens ownership of safety, and helps develop “Safety Heroes” who actively support Life Saving Rules and create a worker led safety culture.
- From Awareness to Hazard Hunting :- Workers move from passive rule following to actively scanning environments and identifying Line of Fire early.
- Aligned with IOGP Safety Rules :- Encourages proactive behaviours that reflect real industry safety expectations and standards.
- Instinct Based Learning through VR :- Real time hazard simulations help workers build natural reactions instead of relying only on memorisation.
- Safe Learning from Mistakes :- Immediate virtual consequences create strong learning without real-world risk exposure.
- AI-powered behaviour analysis :- Tracks reaction time, hesitation, and unsafe actions to focus on behavioural improvement.
- Creating Safety Heroes within the Organisation :- Builds confident individuals who intervene early, influence peers, and strengthen safety ownership.
- Support Life Saving Rules (LSR) :- Reinforces practical application of critical safety behaviours during real operational scenarios.
Measurables Benefits Achieved by InfiVR Customers
- 40-60% Faster Training & Onboarding :- Workers understand complex Line of Fire scenarios quicker thorough immersive, experience based learning.
- 23-25% Reduction in Repeat Unsafe Acts :- Improved hazard recognition helps workers avoid repeating risky behaviours on site.
- Up to 50% Higher Knowledge Retention :- VR training engages visual and emotional memory, making learning more effective than traditional methods.
- 20-30% Reduction in Overall Training Costs :- Fewer mock drills , less downtime, and reduced dependence on repeated classroom sessions lower expenses.
- Stronger ROI within months :- Faster onboarding , fewer incidents, and efficient training delivery create measurable business value quickly.
- Improved Hazard Recognition & Fewer Incidents :- Workers better understand Line of Fire risks and apply safer positioning in real operations.
- Positive Worker Feedback :- Teams report high realism, relevance, and clearer understanding of real site hazards.
- Stronger Safety Culture :- Encourage proactive hazard prevention and supports creation of safer, more responsible teams.
Why InfiVR Aligns Naturally with IOGP Safety Rules
IOGP Safety Rules are built to prevent high consequences incidents by focusing on behaviour, not just compliance. InfiVR’s immersive approach supports this philosophy by converting rules into experiences. Workers see unsafe zones, experience urgency, practise correct responses, and repeat scenarios until safe behaviour becomes instinctive.
This combination ensures that Life Saving Rules are not just understood but internalised.
Final Reflection
Safety is not defined by how many rules workers know. It is defined by how they react in critical moments. Incidents do not happen in classrooms. They happen in dynamic environments where perception, timing, and instinct matter.
InfiVR’s VR, AI Powered Safety Training, IOGP 3D Safety Training, and IOGP line of fire training give organisations the ability to expose workers to real hazards before they face them on site. By building experience, encouraging hazard hunting, and creating Safety Heroes, InfiVR helps organisations move from compliance to true Safety leadership.
We are already delivering Life Saving Rules and Safety trainings to global industry leaders including Toyota, Suzuki, SKF, Renault, ExxonMobil, SLB, Aramco, Trane Technologies, Bajaj Auto, Volkswagen, DHL, ABB, etc along with many other leading organisations across high risk industries.
Immersive Line of Fire training is no longer optional. It is a necessary evolution in how high risk industries protect their people.
