GTT Training, a specialist LNG training and simulation provider, announces the award of a first contract to supply its G-Sim LNG simulator software to L-3 DPA and Chevron.

The contract involves the development of a new LNG Carrier model based specifically of the new LNG vessels owned and operated by Chevron. The G-Sim software will also interface with the Engine Room simulation equipment being provided to Chevron by L-3 DPA.

Used to provide hands-on, real-time training in the processes and procedures that must be followed to undertake and complete any type of LNG cargo related operation, G-Sim provides full simulation of all the systems on a vessel that are involved in the management and handling of the LNG cargo and maintaining the vessel in a safe condition. In addition to the Chevron specific vessels, the instructors will also be able to select from 16 different configurations of LNG Carrier, with the selection being based on tank capacity, containment system and propulsion system, to cater for future requirements.

Developed internally by GTT Training using their extensive experience in the behaviour of LNG and providing training simulators to the maritime industry, G-Sim provides the most effective training platform for training operatives in the handling of LNG.
