About this Training Course The Oil & Gas E&P industry is evolving from deep sea exploration to renewable sources of energy through windfarms and solar fields offshore. In tandem, OSBs will need to evolve for sustainability and revival from stagnant traditional Supply Base Models. The changing role of OSBs is toward support services for decommissioning projects and LNG Floating Terminals. In addition, the new geographical regions of East and South Africa are coming up at a faster pace. All such operations are dependent upon a complex network of transport and supply in order to deliver the staff, materials, machinery, and crew provisions where and when needed. This 3 full-day course is curated to enhance the skills and competencies of passionate professionals to plan and organise resources, minimise turnaround time for the vessels engaged in support of Offshore E & P operations. Various hands-on exercises can equip the participants to implement viable and feasible approaches for safe and efficient management of OSBs in compliance with continuously evolving international best practices and Oil & Gas standards. This course is specially developed for investors, business owners, senior executives and professionals from the offshore & marine logistics industry, with the following objectives: To provide a firm understanding about the role of an Offshore & Marine Supply Base in support of Oil & Gas E & P fleet operations, in contrast with traditional merchant shipping logistics.
