ClassNK has entered a collaboration with GTT Training Ltd., a subsidiary of GTT, to facilitate advanced training in LNG and alternative fuels. This partnership leverages the expertise of GTT, renowned for its cryogenic membrane containment systems, by integrating specialised courses into the ClassNK Academy. These courses, aimed at maritime professionals, will cover the safe and efficient handling of alternative fuels, particularly LNG.
Focus on Alternative Fuels Efficiency
GTT Training is distinguished for its training programs, which draw on GTT's extensive experience and technology. With this collaboration, maritime professionals will gain cutting-edge knowledge and practical skills essential for efficiently managing alternative fuels. GTT’s systems are widely used in LNG ships and floating facilities, underlining their significance in the transport of low and zero-carbon fuels.
Introduction to New Marine Fuels
The initial offering under this collaboration is a course titled 'LNG, AMMONIA, METHANOL AND HYDROGEN: AN INTRODUCTION'. This program will introduce participants to emerging marine fuels, focusing on their unique characteristics, associated hazards, and safety practices. This educational effort is part of ClassNK's ongoing commitment to enhancing decarbonisation and safety standards in the maritime industry.
ClassNK has agreed to collaborate with GTT Training Ltd. (GTT Training), a GTT subsidiary dedicated to the training of professionals in the LNG and future fuels industry.
Under the framework of the ClassNK Academy, ClassNK invites lecturers from GTT Training to provide specialised training courses on alternative fuels, focusing on LNG.
Efficient handling of alternative fuels
GTT Training specialises in providing training based on GTT's technology and know-how
GTT is a technology and engineering group with expertise in the design and development of cryogenic membrane containment systems for use in the transport for low and zero-carbon fuels, including LNG (liquefied natural gas). Its technology is adopted by many LNG ships and floating facilities.
GTT Training specialises in providing training based on GTT's technology and know-how. This collaboration will help maritime professionals acquire cutting-edge knowledge and practical skills for the safe and efficient handling of alternative fuels.
New types of marine fuels
As the first step, ClassNK will offer the course 'LNG, AMMONIA, METHANOL AND HYDROGEN: AN INTRODUCTION' from GTT Training's numerous training programs. This course aims to introduce various new types of marine fuels being considered in the shipping industry, focusing on their characteristics, hazards, and practical safety considerations.
ClassNK will continue to strive to provide high-quality educational and training opportunities to support the decarbonisation and safety improvement of the maritime industry.
