ISGOTT & SIGTTO Requirements related to Tanker and Oil & Gas Terminal Operations and Safety
Introduction
The Hydrocarbon Cargoes in Liquid or gas states are considered one of the highest demand commodities worldwide. Safe handling, transportation and storage operation of such valuable and dangerous cargoes are very important issues that was studied deeply and considered as a main concern of several international organisations.
This Global Franchise comprehensive ISGOTT & SIGTTO Requirements for Tanker and Oil & Gas Terminal Safe Operations training course was prepared based on the requirements of IMO represented in the requirements of SOLAS & MARPOL Conventions, the International Chamber of Shipping (ICS), the Oil Companies International Marine Forum (OCIMF) and the International Association of Ports and Harbors (IAPH) organisations. All these organisation have come up with some guidance and requirements that were listed in ISGOTT in its latest version (Version 6) for the Petroleum / Oil Tankers & Terminals and SIGTTO for LPG & LNG Gas Carriers and Terminals.
The training course will emphasize cargo planning and transfer requirements and develop good terminal management skills and support transport & storage operations. The course shall identify the associated Risk Assessment & Hazard Identification to guide the tanker / terminal personnel to manage a safe transport / storage process and act professionally during contingency and emergency response situations. In addition, this training course will also cover the key points and barriers in oil/gas tankers and terminal interfaces measures in the workplace from the Management to the personal level.
OBJECTIVES
