LNG Plant Operator Training and Certificate Program

GTI has been training LNG plant operators and ensuring their compliance with Department of Transportation regulations for decades. GTI's independent certification provides documentation that your employees have been trained and have passed the final exam.

Here's just one of the many positive responses we've received from those who have taken the course:

"The material was well laid out, and very helpful…almost as good as being in a class,
but a lot more efficient use of my time. I now have a good general basis to get more
involved in LNG plant design and operations."
(Ross Parker)
