Onboard Operations

Plate Heat Exchangers (PHEs) play a pivotal role in maintaining thermal equilibrium in diverse applications, particularly within marine engineering. This essential component ensures efficient heat transfer, impacting engine cooling, HVAC systems and overall equipment reliability on ships. By exploring the operational principles, advantages, challenges and maintenance aspects of PHEs, this overview illuminates their critical role in optimising performance and adhering to stringent safety and marine engineering standards in the dynamic maritime environment.

When you successfully complete the course "Security Awareness for all Seafarers" you will have the required standard of competence. This enables you to contribute to the enhancement of maritime security through heightened awareness, the ability to recognise security threats, and to respond appropriately.

Navigation by sea does not exclude specific risks inherent to security threats deriving from malicious third parties. It would be advisable for the crew to also receive training notions on safety activities with the aim of increasing the understanding of threats that could occur during navigation.

Ship-to-ship transfer operations, also known as STS operations, are operations where crude oil or petroleum products are transferred between seagoing tanker ships moored alongside each other at sea. Such operations can take place when one ship is at anchor or both are underway at very low speeds.

This course offers a comprehensive insight into the International Convention for the Safety of Life at Sea (SOLAS), a critical global maritime safety treaty. Established under the IMO, SOLAS aims to set minimum safety standards for the construction, equipment, and operation of ships.

BRM is: To change an attitude and create a culture. Implementing BRM always means a change of culture and attitude. Conflict will inevitably follow during that work.

This training is specifically designed so that the participant can acquire the knowledge and skills relating to the legislation and obligations for companies that carry out shipments, loading, unloading, stowage, packaging and any other activity related to the maritime transport of dangerous goods.

Explore advanced maritime digitalisation: AI-driven systems, real-time data, cloud, cybersecurity, and autonomous ships. Learn how these technologies reshape operations, enhance decision-making, and optimise efficiency, perfect for maritime professionals staying ahead in a fast-evolving industry.

Discover how IoT, data analytics, and predictive maintenance reshape shipping. Boost performance, cut costs, and enhance safety while meeting environmental standards. This course equips you with essential skills to thrive in today’s fast-evolving digital maritime landscape.

This course provides practical knowledge on handling corrosive cargoes safely on tanker vessels. It covers cargo properties, potential hazards, personal protective equipment (PPE), spill response procedures, and compliance with environmental regulations to ensure safety and operational efficiency.

This course provides training on synthetic mooring ropes, covering their care, maintenance, inspection, and safe usage. It includes best practices for mooring operations, safety precautions, and guidelines from the latest industry standards, such as MEG4. Participants will learn to maximise rope performance while ensuring safety and operational efficiency.

Time & Temperature is important for all food handlers onboard to understand as part of their everyday work onboard.
