OE0445(AR1) : Tanker & Marine Terminals: Operations, Charter Parties, Laytime, Demurrage, Loss Control, Audits, Rules & Regulations

 This practical and highly-interactive course includes real-life case studies and exercises where participants will be engaged in a series of interactive small groups and class workshops. 

 

The domestic and international rules governing the qualifications for personnel serving on tank vessels have changed in recent years and the operation of marine terminals has become more socially and environmentally sensitive. Accidents, the potential for accidents and the extreme consequence that can result for operating companies has heightened the need not only for effective operations but a need to be able to show that operations meet international best practice. 

 

This course addresses some of the serious, often complex issues facing the industry today and details practical areas of ship operations and will concentrate on tanker operations, tanker charter parties, laytime and demurrage, petroleum cargo loss control, terminal operations audits and marine rules and regulations. 

 

The course will also provide an excellent practical review of tanker operations without being loaded down with excessive technical detail. It details tanker types, sizes, uses and design of tank vessels; cargo and classification methods; tanker route planning and navigation; tanker cleaning practices and procedures; cargo planning, operations and measurement; and maintenance practices. Further, the relative laws, regulations, and regulatory bodies and industry organizations will also discuss such as IMO, API, ISO, ASTM, ISPS, etc. The basics of charter parties, worldscale and vessel performance will also be covered during the course.
