Course Description

Introduction

Load mastering for Oil, LNG, Gas, and Petrochemical will be covered in great detail in this Course N Carry training course. Topics covered include management of ship shore operations, cargo documentation and calculation, charter party, and demurrage, as well as loading and unloading operations at terminals, on tankers, and on chemical and LNG gas carriers. 

  • Determine more effective methods for handling, loading, and unloading bulk liquids including LNG. 
  • Discover the most recent international norms and laws pertaining to tankers and terminals, including their physical characteristics and the kinds of cargo they may hold. 
  • Recognize risk and loss related to quality and quantity, and acquire preventative measures 
  • Boost environmental, safety, and compliance performance 
  • Study the technical features of pipeline systems and pumps, including how to load and unload them.

Goals
