This course provides a structured, hands-on approach to coal cargo operations, equipping maritime professionals with critical skills in cargo planning, hazard management, loading safety, and emergency response. Participants will gain practical insights into international regulations, best practices for stowage and ventilation, and strategies for effective teamwork during coal handling operations.
By mastering the principles covered in this course, participants will be able to ensure safe, efficient, and compliant coal cargo transportation, minimizing operational risks and enhancing their expertise in maritime logistics.
