At Aboa Mare, we operate a full‑mission engine room simulator, Wärtsilä TechSim 9, providing advanced and realistic training for marine engineers and engine personnel.
The simulator comprises both a fully equipped Engine Control Room (ECR) and a simulated Engine Room, enabling comprehensive hands‑on and scenario‑based training. Our training portfolio includes several engine and machinery configurations, allowing students and industry customers to gain experience across a wide range of ship types and propulsion concepts.
We offer simulation models covering:
- Medium‑speed diesel engines
- Slow‑speed diesel engines
- Diesel‑electric propulsion systems
- Integrated machinery systems
- IGF Code–compliant engine room simulator training
In addition, Virtual Reality (VR) models are incorporated into selected training modules to enhance situational awareness, equipment familiarization, and safety training.
We also provide cloud‑based engine room simulator training, enabling flexible remote learning solutions for both academic and professional use.
