Services DP Simulator

MOL DP Training Center

We have installed a dynamic positioning simulator with a Dynamic Positioning System in our head office.
The simulator is manufactured by Kongsberg, same as actual machine equipment's on the vessel, and trained as if trainees operate an actual ship.
We are not only provide providing DP operation training for seafarers and engineers within the MOL Group, but also provide training that meets the requirements of our customers, such as offshore wind power generation and special vessels for offshore development.

As Japan's first training center certified by The Nautical Institute (Headquarters: UK), we provide the following training and can issue a training certificate, which is essential for acquiring DP operator qualification.

We also provide our original training for special vessels involved in offshore wind power and ocean development.
