Videotel launches heavy lifts and project cargoes programme

Videotel has responded to major changes in international seafarer training legislation

Videotel, a KVH company, has developed a training course designed to guide maritime personnel in addressing one of the industry’s most important issues: energy management. Experts agree that effective energy management is not just good business practice but also demonstrates a company’s commitment to help reduce its carbon footprint and world energy use. Called “ISO 50001 Energy Management Training Course,” the Videotel program is designed to help organisations achieve effective energy management by setting out a sequence of procedures and systems for them to implement.

Videotel has launched the innovative and unique Enclosed Space Management System

Videotel™, a KVH company, has recently produced two new programmes designed to help ship owners meet progressively tighter fuel and emission controls including a limit that will go into effect from 1 January 2015. Ship owners and ship managers need to be aware that the MARPOL Annex VI limits applicable in Emission Control Areas (ECAs) for sulphur oxides (SOx) and particulate matter, having already been reduced to 1.00% in 2010, are being further reduced to just 0.10 %, effective from 1 January 2015. Videotel’s “MARPOL Annex VI Prevention of Air Pollution from Ships, Edition 2” focuses on ways that ship owners can reduce the main air pollutants contained in exhaust gas through engine design, tuning, and maintenance. Procedural guidelines for incinerator use are also described and the need for training is emphasised. Furthermore, Videotel has also produced “The Practical Management and Switching of Marine Fuels” programme, specifically designed to provide a practical guide to what is required of officers and engineers to process fuel oil from the bunker tank to the engine.
