Major points:
Vessel types and their construction
Cargo care and measurement
Ballasting operations and optimizing vessel discharge features
Hazards associated with different cargoes and how to manage them
Determining the most suitable vessel
Interpreting and understanding the regulations associated with these types of operation
This Gulf Rowad training course will highlight:
The differences between Oil, Chemical and Liquified Gas Tankers
The properties of different cargoes and the associated hazards
