LNG cargo handling simulator
Sweden’s Transas Marine has launched a new liquid cargo handling simulator, the LCHS 5000 TechSim LNG, which it says is the first in the market to boast ship-to-ship transfer functionality.
The new Transas LCHS 5000 TechSim product line includes simulators for LNG tanker, LNG terminal and LPG carriers.
It will enable trainers to provide highly realistic, in-depth training using the high-end simulation technology to include vessel team management exercises, as well as interaction with terminal operations staff.
The LNG vessel and LNG terminal simulator models were developed in a close collaboration with the Sczecin Maritime Academy, Poland. Simulated models have been designed to reflect real installations which are currently under construction at the Swinoujscie LNG terminal in Poland.
To further complement the liquid gas vessel model range, an LPG vessel model has also been developed by Transas and validated by LPG operators.
Ship-to-ship transfer is a complex operation which requires adequate training to minimise the risks of damage to personnel, environment and assets.
