LEARNING PROCESS
The training will be a combination of theoretical
lessons and practical exercises. The participants will
work with practical scenarios based on real operations, training on planning and executing specified
operations under varying simulated conditions.
During the operations, typical DP failure modes will
be included. Realistic communication with the field
centre, other vessels and different onboard departments is also included. The scenarios will be run on
a redundant DP system in a bridge-like environment
connected to an advanced simulator control.
