Simulator suite gains DNV approval

BMT currently deploys its five integrated bridges for a wide range of commercial and naval stakeholders, including the UK Ministry of Defence, with UK Admiralty pilot and tug master training. It is also supporting synthetic testing and navigation assurance of new autonomous craft.  

“Our achievements align with customer and industry demands for the highest fidelity training tools that also comply with new and emerging hydrodynamic modelling and hydraulic data standards,” said BMT maritime products director Phil Thompson.

“The expanded certifications offer flexibility, enabling customers to configure all types of simulator setups precisely to their needs – ranging from desktop and laptop systems all the way up to DNV Class A full-mission bridge simulators – with the added capability for easy upgrades as requirements change,” he told Riviera Maritime Media.

“Further, these certifications give a significant rock-solid platform for pushing on with customers and industry partners to accelerate smarter ship operations and pilotage, and compliance with the industry’s highest gold standards for navigation simulation.”

BMT Rembrandt is widely field tested by a growing, diverse range of maritime stakeholders including commercial shipping, ports, statutory agencies and defence contractors.
