Our bridge simulator training facilities enable marine pilots, shipmasters and senior navigating officers to develop and practice their skills in a realistic but risk-free environment. They include LICOS (Liquid Cargo Operations Simulator) as well as a desktop-based engine room simulator set up in a multifunctional classroom. These additional facilities are located in the James Parsons Building. Engine room and LICOS suite – Byrom Street

#SHIP SIMULATOR CONTROL FULL#
Originally set up to meet the demands for ECDIS training, this facility provides a full mission desktop simulation solution for navigational training. Our Transas ECDIS suite (Electronic Chart Display and Information Systems) is located in the James Parsons Building on Byrom Street and isfitted with 10 stations. This facility has the capability to connect the bridges with the engine room – training both deck and engineer officers simultaneously. A full mission engine room simulator is located next to the bridges which can be used as a standalone simulator for training marine engineers in skills related to engine room watchkeeping. Supplied by Wartsila, this simulator consists of five bridges with the primary bridge configured to a 360° field-of-view.
