PC-based Operator Training Simulator (OTS) is a powerful training tool to:

• Understand the fundamentals of process
• Develop the scenario-based training to teach operators how to deal with normal and emergency situations without compromising the actual plant, worker safety, and the environment. Few other tools offer this type of training opportunity.
• Enhance creativity and the decision making capabilities of the operators by letting them try different strategies to bring a critical situation under control.
• Be Used it as an assessment tool to identify people with best natural aptitude and potential to become effective equipment and plant operators.

ADEPP products and Instructional design expertise can make your immersive virtual reality project for training and project management a success. We carefully audit and collect the existing tools and procedures of your plant of integrate them in the selected VR platform. We provide consultancy to choose the most appropriate VR tool and showrooms for your application.

In training, realism is very important to help ensure that operators can get the most out of it. Studies show that trainees who work with simulation software are more productive than those who only trained on an actual machine.

Model fidelity must be sufficient to replicate the response of the plant so that the operators cannot tell the difference between the simulation and the real thing. The same is true for other aspects of the simulation. The more realistic it is in other aspects, the more the trainees will accept the method and retain what they’ve learned from their experience with the simulator.

Virtual Reality (VR) adds another dimension of realism to simulation. VR has been used with excellent results for many years to train astronauts, pilots, and military personnel. Now, high fidelity, 3D virtual reality simulators are available for the process and energy industries.

Simulation in general is always a good idea, as it lets you test designs and ideas without spending too much money or effort actually building anything. And in some cases, an experiment would be impossible or too expensive to carry out (satellite launching, aircraft aerodynamics, etc) so a simulation would be the next best thing.

By using simulation, you can find fault points within your designs, simulate ideas as you think of them, and even quantitize and optimize them. It can even be used simulation to verify my theories - if the theoretical simulation matches what actually happens, then the theory is proven!

There are any existing 3D models which can be used for training purposes. But these models are scattered and belong to the different software companies, consultancies, engineering/manufacturing/operating companies and vendors. Our aim in ADEPP Academy is to:

• Collect the existing models for each typical installation such as FPSO, Drilling site, LNG plant, Refinery, etc.to help professionals and trainees to have an easy and coherent access to the validated models.
• Develop the missing 3D models using the appropriate software.
