Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) Carriers transport natural gas in its liquefied form over long distances, from the gas fields to the consumers. The global market for natural gas, an environment friendly fuel, is expanding rapidly as the world's energy needs increase. This has in turn led to a rapid expansion of the LNG fleet and a shortage of qualified and experienced officers to man these ships.
Recognizing this, Malaysian Maritime Academy, also known as ALAM, a premier maritime training institute and Teledata Marine Solutions, a leading provider of enterprise solutions for the maritime industry, have developed this LNG Cargo Operations Program.
This program is designed for aspiring and practicing cargo operators onboard LNG carriers. In combination with a simulator based training it will improve the learner’s competency in carrying out LNG cargo operations.
If you are a mariner looking for an opportunity to join the remunerative LNG fleet, this program will help you to acquire that required competency to be employable. If you are already sailing on LNG carriers, you will become aware of the rapidly changing technology and its demands and improve your job skills and performance onboard. |
