SIMULATION TECHNOLOGY TRAINING CENTRES ACROSS THE WORLD


A new 19,000 square foot Maritime and Industrial Training Center in New Orleans, Louisiana, the Delgado Fire and Industrial School offers industry leading training by combining Transas and XVR simulation technology.


WORLD FIRST


Delgado is the first training center in the world to deploy XVR Incident Command simulation solutions in conjunction with their extensive suite of Transas full mission, part task and classroom marine simulators. The centre will be attended by 10,000 students each year.


Rick Schwab, Senior Director of the facility, commented "We have worked with Transas for nearly fifteen years now, and have always been able to rely on them to support our programmes and deliver the new technologies that we need to solve our clients training needs. When our team was introduced to XVR Simulation by Transas, we immediately knew that it was what we needed to take our Incident Command training to the next level. Transas and XVR provide a combination of products that together can expand the realism and effectiveness of maritime emergency and crisis response training."


STRATEGIC COOPERATION Transas and XVR Simulation are excited by this first major joint project deployment by the two market sector leaders since January's announcement of their new strategic cooperation. The two companies explore the technical


integration of their products for a range of training applications. “The input of experienced experts, such as the team at Delgado, who are thoroughly familiar with industry needs, is a vital component of producing complete solutions that can provide positive contribution to maritime safety, a cornerstone of Transas' THESIS concept,” commented Neil Bennett, Vice President of Sales and Customer Support for Transas in the Americas region.


NEW WORLD-CLASS CENTRE FOR SIMULATOR AND MARITIME TRAINING The most advanced maritime simulation and training centre powered by Transas technology, officially opened recently in the Netherlands.


Carnival Corporation's new world-class Centre for Simulator and Maritime Training (CSMART) was officially opened in Almere. The centre is the largest facility in terms of training capacity and utilises the most innovative technology solutions from Transas.


The Transas Integrated Full Mission Simulation Academy Solution implemented at the centre is a significant innovation that moves the capability of the most complex challenge to maritime safety forward.


STEP-CHANGE REQUIREMENT Carnival recognised that a step-change was required in the way seafarers are trained to improve safety at sea. The interaction of human factors on board cruise vessels are some of the most complex in the maritime industry. Crews empowered with a solid foundation of generic core competencies ensure significantly better safety outcomes than those that rely heavily on established roles and procedures.


As a result of almost two-years of intensive R&D investment, the new training environment concept has now become a reality at the CSMART facility.
