The Ultimate Oil & Gas Marine Tank Terminal & Jetty Operations

Course overview

Jetties and marine terminals are always in use. These locations are used for vital yet dangerous operations and activities. The mechanical integrity of machinery and equipment, the safety of operational procedures covered by international regulations and standards, pollution prevention strategies, etc., are just a few examples of the aspects of health, safety, security, and the environment that professionals working at oil and gas marine terminals and jetties need to be up to date on.

To make operations at terminals and jetties faster and safer, they also need to be upgraded with new technology, techniques, and equipment developed throughout time. Therefore, ongoing training is essential.

The administration of terminals and jetty’s is crucial and dynamic; due to the quick development of technology and the growing need to reduce costs, operations and processes here are constantly changing. Instead of keeping workers on-call at these sites around-the-clock, management is contracting and outsourcing a large portion of the work to other organizations.

The major focuses of terminal management operations include management, operations, maintenance, administration, pollution avoidance, contingency planning, and safety during emergencies, writing procedures, and regulatory compliance.

The weather has a significant influence in planning and choosing type, mode, and time of operations given the extent of the activity and the surrounding environment.

Introduction
