Course Overview:

• Principles of DP
• Elements of a DP system
• Practical operation of a DP system
• Position Reference Systems
• Environmental sensors and ancillary equipment
• Power generation and supply
• DP operations
• DP Alarms, warnings, and emergency procedures
• DP rules and regulations

Training Methodology: DP Revalidation includes practical/operational exercises — using Kongsberg redundant DP system simulators in a bridge-like environment — that are complemented with theoretical lessons. Participants will be given a review of DP principles and operation and rules and regulations with the use of lectures, case studies, and simulation.

Learning Objectives: Upon completion of DP Revalidation, participants should have a renewed understanding of:

• General principles of dynamic positioning
• Practical operation of DP and associated equipment, including position reference systems, heading reference systems, and wind sensors and other environmental reference systems
• Operational planning, risk assessment, and ability to react to various alarms, warning, and informational messages through simulated exercises on Kongsberg redundant DP systems
• Current national and international rules and regulations for DP

Target Group: DP operators renewing their DP certificate with less than 180 DP days.

Duration:  4 days
