Maintaining them correctly will prolong their service life, giving <strong>significant savings<\/strong>. But more importantly, maintenance is essential in order to <strong>prevent incidents<\/strong> (polluting the seas, should one of them break during the operation, for instance), <strong>criminal prosecution<\/strong> for bad maintenance, as well as severe <strong>financial losses<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>4SA&#8217;s Transfer hoses at maritime terminals training course has been designed to address all these issues.<\/p>\n<div class=\"line\"><span class=\"line\"> <\/span><\/div>\n<h5>4SA Training: Ullage and ASTM tables<\/h5>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Duration<\/strong>: 4 hours, completed in half a day.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Training designed for: terminal staff.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">For terminals, it is a <strong>significant challenge, with financial implications<\/strong>, to ensure that during loading operations, the quantity of product expected matches the quantity of product received.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Before each unloading operation and after each loading operation, it is essential that the quantity of product on board is &#8220;recognised&#8221;.
