Captain's Life : Experience a Day in the Life of an Mega Oil tanker Captain through my eyes...................!
Around the globe in the world of sea-lanes, coastal waterways and deep water ports , day and night Oil tankers and the mariners are engaged in transportation of the petroleum to where they are needed and have a vital role to play within the energy value chain .
The entire authority and responsibility of the vessel and those onboard lies with the Captain and with this comes the Accountability. He has the overall command and answerable for every operation & incident that occurs on the ship under his command.
It's a demanding role, and during his entire tenure, Master is on call 24 hours per day, 7 days per week, Sundays and holidays.
Failure to effectively manage crisis situations, make quick & informed decisions and prioritize the safety of lives can be detrimental
to the career or in the worst case, the future life of the captain.
The operations on-board an oil tanker are radically different from those on other types of ships, primarily due to the physical properties of the cargo.
The entire cargo operations are highly automated and proceed with no one on-board the ship or shore seeing the cargo physically.
Even minor misunderstanding of an order or a miscalculation can cause a major spill . Fire safety provisions, for example, are much more stringent for tankers than ordinary dry cargo ships, since the danger of fire on board ships carrying oil and refined products is much greater.
While most days in sea are calm ,one can never predict the weather, sailing through rough seas safely, require Master to utilize all his expertise .

This is a MOTIVATIONAL Video for anyone and everyone whose goal is to one day be a Merchant Marine Captain or any kind of Captain for that matter.
