Program Overview: What is Logistics of Oil, Gas and Petroleum Products?
Logistics of Oil, Gas & Petroleum Products is a 24-hour instructor-led program for supply chain, terminal, and marine professionals in the hydrocarbons sector. It covers hydrocarbon products and supply chain foundations, pipelines and terminals, marine logistics and chartering, inventory planning and scheduling, and HSSE and regulatory compliance.
Learners work through realistic nomination, scheduling, and chartering scenarios using industry-standard planning exercises. Guided sessions mirror terminal and marine operations, with instructors coaching participants on tradeoffs between cost, speed, and safety. Detailed feedback on each exercise builds operational judgment. The program ends with a capstone where each learner builds an end-to-end petroleum product distribution plan covering pipelines, terminals, and marine legs.
Hydrocarbon logistics failures mean spills, demurrage, stockouts, and regulatory penalties that erase margins overnight. Teams that plan loosely discover problems at the terminal gate. This program teaches participants to plan inventory tightly, schedule reliably, and manage HSSE and compliance as part of every movement.
The capstone, an end-to-end petroleum product distribution plan, has each learner design a complete movement of products from refinery through pipelines, terminals, and marine legs to final delivery, with inventory schedules and HSSE controls documented. It is the kind of planning artifact employers value because it proves the learner can run hydrocarbon logistics, not just describe it.
Participants practice scheduling pipeline nominations, planning terminal throughput, evaluating charter options and building contingency plans for disruption. Guided labs use realistic product flows, capacity constraints and compliance scenarios so teams apply each technique to their own network. The program suits logistics planners, procurement staff, terminal operators and HSSE coordinators who support oil, gas and petroleum product distribution.

Where this Training Fits in Your Team's learning path.
Petroleum logistics sits second in this path, once your team knows general supply chain principles. This course applies them to moving crude, gas and refined products. LNG operations follow, a specialised part of that chain, and the path ends with supply chain resilience and risk.

Plan Petroleum Distribution With Connected Transport, Inventory, and HSSE Decisions
Edstellar develops hydrocarbon logistics capability through pipeline, terminal, and marine planning cases. Participants match products to transport modes, sequence batches, and compare charter costs before preparing nominations and contingency responses. The final distribution plan connects these decisions, reviewed for capacity feasibility, cost assumptions, inventory coherence, and the safeguards supporting product transfers.
- Step 01
Consult
We explore supply-chain familiarity, product and corridor responsibilities, and recurring nomination, storage, or freight-cost problems to identify the cohort's petroleum logistics learning needs.
- Step 02
Plan
We establish product characteristics and transport choices before pipeline and terminal planning, then connect chartering, inventory nominations, and HSSE scenarios in the distribution plan.
- Step 03
Align
We align petroleum logistics expertise with planners, procurement, terminal, and HSSE teams, confirming representative product slates, capacity data, and commercial cases for coordinated practice.
- Step 04
Customize
We adapt sample batches, voyage options, and refinery-outage cases to familiar corridors, retaining storage and timing limits that expose conflicts between cost and operational feasibility.
- Step 05
Execute
Participants sequence pipeline batches, compare freight options, and rebalance nominations after disruption, receiving feedback on calculations, capacity assumptions, inventory implications, and contingency controls.
- Step 06
Evaluate
We assess the distribution plan for feasible transport and terminal schedules, transparent costs, reconciled product needs, and justified HSSE and spill-response arrangements.
