The effective management and operation of an oil and gas terminal is essential for a successful business. The processing, transporting and storing of crude oil and refined petroleum products, in tank farms, involves custody transfers of partner and commingled stock, significant volumes of data from various sources and blending operations complexities. In addition, as these liquids are loaded and offloaded in bulk quantities, there is a large transfer of high value that makes it imperative for tank farm operators to efficiently manage their inventory and maximize their return on investment.
This training course provides an overview of the American Petroleum Institute API-650, API 620 and API 2610 specifications as well as the API 653 inspection standard. Emphasis is also given both to safety as well as operability of tank farms and the training includes Seveso III Directive real life example reports, how they were carried out and implemented.
Upon successful completion of this PetroKnowledge training course, participants will gain knowledge on oil terminals and tank farms, methods of tank gauging, crude oil product specifications, product blending and tank mixing, dealing with of oil spill emergencies, cleaning of crude oil and heavy product tanks, understanding and employ a work permit system, pigging operations of oil pipelines, quality assurance and control, contingency and safety procedures.

This Tank Farm Operations and Performance training seminar is designed for anyone employed in oil refining or anyone working in an oil and or product storage facility. In addition, it is intended, but not limited to professionals involved in handling, loading, or discharging of oil and gas cargoes.
This PetroKnowledge training seminar is specifically designed for:
This PetroKnowledge training course includes interactive sessions with questions, discussions and problem solving under supervision along with group exercises. It will be conducted as an interactive workshop that encourages participants to share their own experiences and apply the programme material to real-life situations. The training course will be reinforced by a learning mix that includes lecture style presentation, open discussion, case studies, simulations and group work.
The training course will also be reinforced by the use of PC’s with simulations to estimate emission losses and dispersion as well as calculations using Microsoft excel to practice tank gauging calculations. Both methods will enhance the understanding of the taught material.
