This USCG approved course satisfies the training requirements of 46 CFR 13.209, 13.309, 13.409 or 13.509 for any dangerous liquids tankerman endorsement. It is our objective at the Northeast Maritime Institute to not only cover the basic principles and procedures in handling dangerous liquids, but to relate years of practical ship board experiences to our course lectures. The following topics are just a few of those that will be covered in this program: Hazards associated with the handling of petroleum, tank vessel safety, pollution prevention, tank vessel design and equipment, vapor recovery systems, cargo surveying and calculations, load and discharge planning, transfer operational procedures, inert gas systems (IGS), and Tank washing (COW) operations. We will also utilize company specific paperwork, pipeline schematics, and any other pertinent information to assist in creating a training experience that relates to the particulars of customers equipment and policies.

We are happy to announce the following additions to our courses and programs at the Northeast Maritime Institute.

24 Hr. Tankbarge Dangerous Liquids Course (24 HR. Simulation)

Upon successful completion of the course, each trainee will receive a certificate of completion which states the following: “Tank Barge Dangerous Liquids Simulation (24 hours)” This certificate will equate to credit for 2 Loads, 2 Discharges, 2 Commencement and 2 Completion of Loading and Discharging.

Provided that they hold an appropriate certificate from an approved cargo course in training Tankerman P.I.C. DL Tankbarge(13.309), those successfully completing this course should thereby be enabled to receive load and discharge credit towards their Tankerman P.I.C. DL Tankbarge endorsement. Each transfer (load or discharge) will be no less than four hours long per the minimum regulation 13.127 b(2). We also intend to transfer from several cargo tanks which exceed the regulation 13.127 b (1). In order to receive credit for two loads and two discharges, two starts and two finishes on the simulator, sixteen course hours under simulator exercises will be provided. Each exercise will be 4 hours in duration. The student will perform 4 total exercises, 4 hours each, for a total of 16 hours of simulation. The additionally 8 hours of the course will consist of introduction, simulation objectives, simulation and assessment overview, and simulator familiarization training.

Cargo handling and auxiliary operations simulators are the only means of training qualified personnel of liquid cargo tankers and gas carriers to perform their functions safely and efficiently. The Liquid Cargo Handling Simulator can be used for studying the tanker’s layout, gear and systems. Training in systems and machinery control, the correct performance of cargo handling operations in standard operating conditions and emergency situations is also available.
