The K-Sim Engine product family includes a range of engine models which are certified by DNV and exceed IMO's STCW requirements for training.

Choose between full mission, desktop and cloud-based simulator solutions

The K-Sim Engine models are extremely flexible. To fit your exact requirements, the simulators can be configured for a desktop computer or an operational full mission simulator using custom panels and equipment like for instance a real automation system, K-Chief. This gives a new level of realism, as crew can train on the identical equipment that they will later operate onboard ships.

  • Full mission - class A

    Provide full familiarization!

    The full mission system is compliant with DNV’s Class A certification and includes an instructor station, an engine control room and an engine room with all the equipment needed. Some models can be delivered with a 3D BigView and a 3D walk-through system optimizing the learning experience. By adding realistic engine room sounds, noises and alarms, total realism is achieved.

  • Desktop - class C

    Teaching the basics more efficiently!

    The desktop solution fulfils DNV’s Class C requirements and is ideal for basic engine room training in a classroom setup. The system typically includes 1-25 student stations and 1-2 instructor stations to create and manage the simulation exercise.

  • Cloud-based - class D

    Enable training anytime & anywhere!

    All K-Sim Engine models can be delivered as cloud-based training solutions through our K-Sim Connect portal. This online/eLearning solution is ideal for add-on training and complies with DNV’s Class D certification. It enables instructors to provide exercises outside school hours and -location.

Kongsberg Maritime’s simulators represent the latest in digital technology, allowing training from novice to expert level. Through the use of virtual reality and detailed data processing, Kongsberg Maritime creates realistic digital replicas of existing ships, providing a solid foundation for students’ understanding of systems and processes on board ships.

K-Sim Engine room simulation modules:

Compliance with maritime training requirements

IMO's STCW Requirements

All K-Sim simulator systems and models within the class A, B and C meets the IMO’s STCW requirements for training. In addition, several K-Sim Engine models are compliant with the IGF Code’s training requirements of crew working on low-flashpoint fuels. 

DNV Certification

All K-Sim simulator systems and models within Class A, B and C are certified by Det Norske Veritas (DNV) according to the current standard DNV-ST-0033 Maritime simulator systems.
