Tankering Training

Great Tankering Operations depend on great Tanker-Barge PIC's. We created our own Tankering Career Academy to meet industry demand and ensure that every one of our employees has received top-notch training. Our U.S. Coast Guard approved on-the-job training program includes one-on-one instruction by some of the best and most experienced Tanker-Barge Pic's in the industry.

We leave nothing to chance. Our Tanker-Barge Pic's training includes the handling of all classes of refined, chemical, and liquid gas cargoes, vapor recovery, firefighting, facility operations, and a full array of emergency responses. Our graduates are qualified to work as vessel tankermen and shoreside tankermen.

To date, the Tankering Career Academy has produced 300+ shoreside Tanker Barge PIC's, including several graduates who now serve in leadership roles within PSC.
