Crews under instruction work in a full size re-creation of an offshore vessel bridge with a realistic simulation of the operation they are undertaking visible through the windows.

Offshore operations

The offshore simulator in Ålesund, Norway, provides a realistic visual and aural environment by combining modern display technology with real instruments.


The offshore simulator in Ålesund, Norway, enables crews of vessels to train for offshore operations under realistic conditions using full scale bridge equipment

Crews can be trained in a variety of offshore operations such as anchor handling, and incidents and emergencies can be simulated.

Features and benefits

  • Simulates advanced offshore operations and anchor handling
  • Real bridge controls
  • Realistic visual/aural simulation
  • Crew training
  • Evaluation of proposed operations
