Description
Oil and chemical tanker cargo operations refer to the process of loading, transporting, and unloading liquid cargoes on board tankers in the oil and chemical industry. These cargoes can include crude oil, refined petroleum products, chemicals, and liquefied gases.
The cargo handling process typically involves several stages, including pre-loading preparations, loading, in-transit monitoring and unloading. Cargo operations on board tankers require specialized equipment and expertise to ensure the safe and efficient transport of liquid cargoes. This includes cargo pumps, valves, and instrumentation, as well as a highly trained crew with knowledge of the cargo properties and handling procedures.
Safety is a top priority in oil and chemical tanker cargo operations. Tankers are subject to strict regulations and guidelines from international bodies such as the International Maritime Organization (IMO) and must comply with various safety protocols and measures to prevent accidents and protect the environment.
Basic Training for Oil & Chemical Tanker Cargo Operations (BTOCTO) Level 1 & Level 2 provides an overview of all of the functionalities and key interfaces of oil & chemical tanker cargo Operations. It covers basic knowledge of tankers, physical and chemical properties of oil and chemicals, knowledge and understanding of tanker safety culture and safety management, hazards, basic knowledge of hazard controls, rules and regulations, safety (PPE, measuring instruments, entering enclosed spaces, resuscitators, rescue and escape equipment, safety for hot and cold works, electrical safety , MSDS), fire safety and firefighting operations, cargo operations, emergencies for oil and chemical tankers, pollution prevention, case studies on oil and LNG ship emergencies and more.
