OpSim™ Suite
OpSim is used to train operations and maintenance personnel for your facility before construction has even been completed.
The virtual plant model is created from the facility's CAD model and reorganized to meet the needs of the plant operators.
Systems and structures are organized and colored, using the NORSK color coding conventions where possible, to make them readily identifiable.
Using the virtual model, new personnel will gain experience that will expedite the training process.

OpSim Insight
|
Cross-Training and Knowledge Transfer
- Reduce the cost of developing training materials by utilizing data generated during engineering and construction to produce high quality images and data.
- Empower new plant operators with the knowledge and experience of seasoned plant operators within a virtual plant model
- Maximize the impact of training time by enabling operators to locate and study critical system components, follow lines, and review plant line-ups.
- Capture valuable knowledge of senior operator before it ”walks out the door” by the embedding of operational information in a virtual environment.

OpSim ProcedureDue: To Be Announced
|
Procedure Publishing
- Create procedures in the virtual plant model with point and click interface, automatically optimized by OpSim.
- Present procedures in pre-formatted OSHA required documentation
|

Procedure Training
- Upload procedure documents and have OpSim prepare the virtual procedure simulation
- Have an avatar demonstrate the precedure in the virtual plant model or take control for familiarization or knowledge assesment.
- Improve cash flow by commissioning time.
- Validate and optimize procedures with a virtual ‘walk down’ of the procedures during design and construction.
- Improve operator proficiency and safety by training operators on complex and infrequently performed operations in the OpSim virtual environment without affecting plant operations.
- Facilitate the standardization of procedures within and across plants by making a digital model of procedures that are linked to a virtual model of the plant components.
- Reduce costs of generating plant operating and safety procedures by ‘point-and-click’ techniques in the virtual model

OpSim InspectionDue: To Be Announced
 |
Inspection Circuits
- Circuits defined in easily managed user groups
- Import a risk database for the inspection circuits to easily organize inspections into need categories and plan schedules accordingly
- Ties into ConstructSim for deployment of scaffolding and other accessibility needed for inspections
- Save time and cost by generating inspection isometric drawings automatically from the virtual model.
- Improve the efficiency of making plant inspections by optimizing the location of TML’s within the virtual model and locating TML’s in that model before going into the plant.
- Reduce plant inspections setup time. Determine how much scaffolding and other equipment will be required before going out into the plant.
- Improve accuracy by uploading inspection data directly from the virtual model into the inspection database.
