Guidelines re key staff involved with LNG operations

SIGTTO Working Group

This working group (WG) was established at the 64th SIGTTO General Purposes Committee (GPC) meeting in September 2011. The WG first met in December 2011 and has had five further meetings since then.

One of the principal tasks identified for the WG is to create guidelines entitled Competency Assurance for Key Staff involved with LNG Operations. The aim is to create a quality training regime based on the existing SIGTTO competency standards. Such a regime will require independent third party verification of training establishments and company systems.

Since the last update in the autumn 2013 edition of SIGTTO News a WG subgroup met with organisations that could carry out third party verification. Work is progressing on creating a high-level, goalbased document that would enable these organisations to carry out verification using their existing standards. This WG intends to complete its task by autumn 2014.
