Oil Spill Combating in the Marine Environment

Why Choose this Online Training Course?

The refining and transfer of oil cargoes are processes that entail many risks. One of these potential risks is potential oil spills which could result in devastation to the marine and coastal environments and have a negative impact on the production and export operations. Hence, all personnel dealing with oil cargoes should be familiar with oil spill hazards, response, and crisis management operations in cases of larger spills.

This PetroKnowledge online training course will highlight:

• The key elements and challenges of an oil spill response using a case history
• The main role of the Supervisor / On-Scene Commander 
• The steps in spill response
• The need for pre-planning and response preparedness
• The interests and roles of other parties to the spill, such as environmental organisations, media representatives, and how they might impact on the role of the Supervisor / On-Scene Commander
