Maersk Training has opened a maritime safety training facility at Fletcher Technical Community College in Houma, Louisiana, it said June 4. This marks “a significant milestone in Maersk Training’s commitment to enhancing workforce development, safety and operational performance in key industries across the Gulf Coast, it said.
Louisiana plays a critical role in the nation’s oil and gas – the biggest gas trading hub, Henry Hub, is based there – and maritime industries.
Fletcher hosts OPITO and STCW-certified courses, including emergency training and tropical helicopter underwater escape training.
Maersk Training said that it planned to expand its portfolio and courses and combined with Fletcher it would “provide high-quality training that meets industry needs and strengthens the region.”
