PD Ports’ Tees Dock is now using a new immersive crane simulator that can replicate high-risk events without endangering drivers or other port workers. The Full Mission Crane Simulator was supplied by GlobalSim at a cost of GB£400,000 (US$485,000) and has been set up to recreate the ship-to-shore cranes, rubber tyre gantry cranes, and mobile harbour cranes used at Teesport, plus different conditions, such as high winds or working at night and faults occurring, such as a hoist break failure.
