Offshore Basics and Dynamic Positioning
This module is directed at newly employed or laterally hired personnel in the maritime industry without prior knowledge of the offshore industry. The module starts with the historical background of offshore activities before going on to look at vessel types (e.g. AHTS, DSV, PSV, ROV Survey) and dynamic positioning.
In addition to the functioning of the DP system attention is paid to the training of the DP operator. The working environment of a DPO will also be briefly introduced. Practical case studies are used as teaching methods throughout.
