FSRU Technical & Legal Compliance Training
FSRU Technical & Legal Compliance is a five-day programme that helps LNG, marine, and legal teams operate floating storage and regasification units within technical and regulatory limits. It builds the skills to apply IGC and IGF requirements, manage charterparties, and keep compliance records audit-ready.
Introduction
FSRU Technical & Legal Compliance examines how floating storage and regasification units are operated, chartered, and regulated across the full project lifecycle. This Training Course covers FSRU design, mooring, regasification systems, and LNG custody transfer alongside the legal framework behind them. Participants study time charter parties, terminal use agreements, class and flag requirements, and port state control. Furthermore, the programme connects engineering practice to compliance duties through technical briefings and contract reviews. As a result, delegates leave able to support FSRU projects with both technical and legal confidence.
