Narrative:
We took off out of ZZZ and when selecting our packs back on (as per SOP) we had a bleed off light illuminate. We went to checklist and no fix ensued. I then contacted dispatcher while captain flew aircraft. We then noticed a low oil pressure light followed by low oil quantity. We went back into the checklist and the procedure is to shut the engine down. We at this point declared an emergency and returned to ZZZ. We finished all checklists and ATC gave us a turn to airport. We were a little high but manageable. The captain failed to get down and we ended up doing a southeast go around and came back around and landed safely. The captain selected brakes 4 degrees and we landed. The captain; after landing; went manual brakes right after touchdown and stopped with about 4000 ft remaining. We then got hot brakes but taxied to gate after fire trucks looked us over. Approximately 10 mins after at gate; we blew a fuse plug on one of the tires. In retrospect; I would have been more forceful with the captain in flying the aircraft properly.

Title: A B767 FLT CREW EXPERIENCED A LOSS OF OIL PRESSURE AND QUANTITY. THEY DECLARED AN EMERGENCY AND RETURNED TO DEP ARPT.
Narrative: WE TOOK OFF OUT OF ZZZ AND WHEN SELECTING OUR PACKS BACK ON (AS PER SOP) WE HAD A BLEED OFF LIGHT ILLUMINATE. WE WENT TO CHKLIST AND NO FIX ENSUED. I THEN CONTACTED DISPATCHER WHILE CAPT FLEW ACFT. WE THEN NOTICED A LOW OIL PRESSURE LIGHT FOLLOWED BY LOW OIL QUANTITY. WE WENT BACK INTO THE CHKLIST AND THE PROC IS TO SHUT THE ENG DOWN. WE AT THIS POINT DECLARED AN EMER AND RETURNED TO ZZZ. WE FINISHED ALL CHKLISTS AND ATC GAVE US A TURN TO ARPT. WE WERE A LITTLE HIGH BUT MANAGEABLE. THE CAPT FAILED TO GET DOWN AND WE ENDED UP DOING A SE GAR AND CAME BACK AROUND AND LANDED SAFELY. THE CAPT SELECTED BRAKES 4 DEGS AND WE LANDED. THE CAPT; AFTER LNDG; WENT MANUAL BRAKES RIGHT AFTER TOUCHDOWN AND STOPPED WITH ABOUT 4000 FT REMAINING. WE THEN GOT HOT BRAKES BUT TAXIED TO GATE AFTER FIRE TRUCKS LOOKED US OVER. APPROX 10 MINS AFTER AT GATE; WE BLEW A FUSE PLUG ON ONE OF THE TIRES. IN RETROSPECT; I WOULD HAVE BEEN MORE FORCEFUL WITH THE CAPT IN FLYING THE ACFT PROPERLY.
