TRAINING OBJECTIVES

Operator errors during DP operations may lead to expensive downtime, or even worse; accidents or incidents resulting in damage, pollution, personnel injuries or fatalities. This implies the need for a comprehensive training program for key DP personnel along with accurate and realistic trainer systems. The K-Sim® DP, Basic is used throughout the basic and general training of DP operators.

EQUIPMENT AND CONFIGURATION

The desktop operator stations comprise a full operator panel connected to a PC and are arranged in a classroom setting with an instructor station. All DP stations normally simulate the same vessel and DP system configuration, but operate independently of each other.

INSTRUCTOR

The instructor will be able to guide the students when operating the DP system. The built in simulator offers realistic responses to the operations initiated by each student.
