A sample from this course

One topic, as StudyPath teaches it.

Oil cargo properties and hazards

Oil cargo properties and hazards encompass the physical and chemical characteristics of petroleum products that influence their handling, storage, and transport in marine vessels. Mastering these concepts is essential for predicting behaviour during loading/unloading, assessing fire and explosion risks, and applying appropriate safety measures in line with NUC/CCMAS, NBTE, and NCCE standards.
