Introduction
Oil and gas marine terminals are critical nodes in the global energy supply chain, facilitating the storage, handling, and transfer of crude oil and refined products between ships and onshore facilities. Efficient terminal operations require strong knowledge of logistics, safety, storage systems, and international regulations.
This program, designed by Global Horizon Training Center, equips participants with the technical, operational, and safety knowledge required to manage and optimize marine terminal operations in the oil and gas industry.
