The Demand for Maritime Personnel
The labour situation within the maritime sector is a topic that attracts much attention worldwide. Many fear we are entering a period where
a massive shortage of qualified personnel can, among other factors, represent a possible threat to both quality and safety standards. At the
same time, customers, authorities and other stakeholders constantly increase their demand for higher quality, precision, safety and corporate
social responsibility. Based on this complex situation, the maritime industry worldwide is expected to have a strong focus on recruiting new,
qualified personnel in years to come.

KONGSBERG’s solution
As a major world-wide supplier of ship automation and control systems, KONGSBERG has a thorough understanding of the industry’s
trainingneedsanddetailedknowledgeofthesystemsusedonboard.Wehavedesignedoursimulatorsaroundthisknowledgetoprovidethe
most realistic and effective training possible. To meet the present and future training needs in the maritime industry, we have developed
the NEPTUNE cargo & ballast handling simulator, which is the result of detailed studies that have defined the optimum solution. NEPTUNE
provides high fidelity real-time simulation, supporting unique education and training of personnel. Through the use of physical models,
NEPTUNE real-time simulation models are completely integrated to produce a “domino effect” on adjacent subsystems. Faults and
alarms will have cascading effects throughout the system if not acknowledged properly. In addition to an extremely high level of realism,
the NEPTUNE cargo & ballast handling simulator offers user-friendliness and flexibility, key features for providing high levels of instructor
control and greater variety of course offerings – capabilities demanded by shipowners and training institutes worldwide.

“STAR Center is pleased to report that Kongsberg’s
Contol room at the full mission cargo handling simulator
NEPTUNE cargo handling simulator has met our at Dalian Maritime University, China
high expectations. The years of development work
shows in the accuracy and realism of the simulation
models. The graphic user interface on the instructor
and student stations is very intuitive and easy to use.
The instructor system provides significant flexibility
in building and running challenging simulation
exercises. Unique scenarios can be developed using
pre-programmed embedded faults and student
performance can easily be monitored and assessed.
The ability to replay the exercises is also a very
valuable tool and the e-Coach capabilities are useful
for developing tutorials for introduction to certain
topics.”
Skills transfer
The learning objective is to understand and operate the entire cargo &
ballast handling system in a safe, timely and cost-effective manner.
Whether you choose a NEPTUNE full mission or desktop, your
students or employees will learn a vast array of skills thanks to the
pedagogical values and high fidelity realism the NEPTUNE simulator
systems offer.

“Co-locatedwithourKongsbergliquidcargosimulator,theKongsberg2-DOFfullmissionballastcontrolroom
simulator and related five part-task desktop simulators have been in operation since 1994. The installed
mathematical model of the semi-submersible mobile offshore drilling unit (MODU) forms part of our
offshore training markets. With instructor control and full remote monitoring of the simulator, the system
covers all ballast control room training requirements for our customers.
These Kongsberg simulators have served CMS well over the past fifteen years and our Centre is now
planning to upgrade both the full mission and desktop versions to complement our full suite of Kongsberg
cargo handling, bridge and engine room simulators.”
