As using LNG as an aquatic gas expands, need for training for LNG bunkering vessel drivers has actually been climbing. Malaysia’s Kasi Group has actually reacted by positioning an order for an LNG bunkering vessel simulator with Wärtsilä.
“As the global demand for LNG fuel for marine applications increases, the number of LNG bunkering vessels serving this demand is also increasing. To achieve best operating practices, safety and efficiency, first-rate crew training is essential. The Wärtsilä simulator enables this,” claims Captain Bo Caspersen, General Manager,Kasi Group “We are familiar with Wärtsilä’s competence in simulator systems having used them in our research and development program for some ten years already. We therefore had no hesitation in approaching Wärtsilä again when we were asked to provide training”.
The Wärtsilä range of supply for its shipment of a TechSim LCHS Network Class simulator to Kasi Group consists of a total amount of 5 job terminals, specifically one for the trainer as well as 4 for the students.
