In a special extended webcast, IADC managing editor Linda Hsieh tours the recently inaugurated MOSAIC II, Maersk’s offshore simulator training complex in Svendborg, Denmark. The 1,200-square-meter, US $10 million complex features a dome-based drilling simulator that offers a 180° side view and 90° vertical view, as well as pipe-handling and well control training capabilities. It is equipped to perform well control downhole simulations with 3D graphics. Other simulators either already installed at the facility or in the process of installation include a rig control room simulator, an engine room simulator and two crane simulators.

The instructor’s control room is where problems and tasks are set and all actions and reactions monitored and recorded. A growing part of the educational program is in the time spent in reviewing how to get things right.
A vital part of the whole picture is the facility to incorporate head office in any crisis or routine training operation. Shore-based staff can join in and monitor and contribute to developments.

More than 70 vessels are accurately portrayed by a bank of 200 computers that react to every movement of the vessel and to tidal and weather conditions.
