LONDON International SOS and Singapore-based Energy Drilling Management have successfully piloted the ICC AOKpass mobile app for an offshore drilling program on behalf of Thailands PTTEP.<\/p>\n
Use of the app is said to provide trust in individuals COVID-19 compliance status, in this case from Singapore to Thailand.<\/p>\n
Following a pilot launch in May, Energy Drilling and International SOS tested the app for a 10 strong crew needing to travel aboard the drilling vessel. <\/p>\n
All the personnel underwent screening with a PCR swab test. Results were verified by a doctor and then saved on the crews individual AOKpass app before being sent to the client in Thailand ahead of their journey.<\/p>\n
Using these results, the two companies and PTTEP were able to smooth entry to the Songkhla Port Authority following the vessels arrival in Thailand. They were able to demonstrate to the authorities that the medical test results were from an accredited source and had been authenticated via the AOKpass app.<\/p>\n
Alex Maroske, Head of Quality, Health, Safety, Environment at Energy Drilling, said:Using blockchain to secure and verify the data, as well as the ability to control and carry around your own health records is a breakthrough and will be a major enabler in allowing businesses to return to work.<\/p>\n
According to International SOS, users can download the ICC AOKpass app to their mobile device and then securely store an authenticated digital copy of their COVID-19 compliance status certificate, as provided by their consulting medical professional. <\/p>\n
Data entered into ICC AOKpass remains localized at all times within the users app and does not rely on centralized data records or external systems. Hardcopy certificates issued by medical professionals, are digitized, authenticated and made available for verification by employers, authorities or other third parties.<\/p>\n
