Japanese firms have set their sights on unveiling an advanced programmer by the end of 2023. The proposed training center is an initiative from MOL DP, ardent about creating opportunities not only for its seafarers but also for interested applicants globally.
Bridging the Gap in Nautical Training
In Japan, training opportunities for Dynamic Positioning (DP) systems are scarce. MOL DP is keen on filling this void and plans on accommodating a significant number of applicants. This move is expected to play a pivotal role in ensuring the safe operation of the requisite vessels for floating offshore wind power projects.
Sailing Towards a Green Future
Offshore wind power initiatives are projected to take off towards the end of this decade. This progress is a significant stride towards establishing a society free from carbon emissions. MOL DP is gearing itself up to become an integral part of this eco-revolution.
Endorsed for Progress
Acknowledging the profound impact of the announced training project, it was chosen for a subsidization scheme. This assistance is part of the Offshore Wind Power Human Resource Development Project, administered by the Agency for Natural Resources and Energy. This organization is a segment of Japan’s Ministry of Economy, Trade, and Industry.
Broadening Horizons with New Training Programs
MOL DP, in collaboration with MOLMEC, has already initiated steps towards actualizing this vision. Their operated DP simulator has laid down training curriculums for cable-laying vessels and anchor-handling tug supply vessels. Recent developments reveal the addition of three new training schedules targeting ship operation, DP system operation, and SEP ship and SOV training. This initiative is a testament to their commitment to crafting a holistic training curriculum.
