Shipyards - Spatio

Custom VR Training Modules

Shipyards and ports operate in some of the world’s most high-risk and complex environments. Spatio VR Safety and Operations Training Simulators enable your workforce to practice critical procedures and handle emergency scenarios in a safe, repeatable, and data-driven environment.

Our solutions are designed in collaboration with marine engineers and HSE professionals to replicate real vessel systems, cranes, dock machinery, and yard operations, allowing trainees to build confidence, accuracy, and operational discipline before entering live work zones.

Realistic Maritime Environments

Train for shipboard and dockside procedures in lifelike virtual environments

Compliance-Centric Design

Aligns with international HSE, ISPS, and IMO standards for compliance.

Enhanced Learning Retention

Reduce training time while improving skill recall through immersive repetition

Scalable Enterprise Deployment

Centralized training management for multiple yards and port locations

Our Solutions for the Shipyards & Shipbuilding Industry

We deliver specialized VR simulators built for the unique operational challenges of shipyards and ports:

Safety Training Simulators

Confined Space Entry & Rescue

Practice safe entry, gas testing, continuous communication, standby coordination, and guided rescues inside tanks, ballast compartments, and vessel void spaces.

Hot Work & Welding Safety

Rehearse welding workflows with permits, gas checks, fire watch, spark containment, PPE validation, and post weld inspections for documented compliance.

Work at Height & Fall Protection

Master harness selection, anchor verification, scaffold movement, tool lanyards, edge awareness, rescue plans, and supervised drills for elevated maritime maintenance.

Fire & Explosion Response

Train fire detection, alarm actions, suppression systems, boundary cooling, compartment isolation, evacuation routing, muster procedures, and incident reporting in simulations.

Electrical Safety in Maritime Environments

Electrical Safety Training

Learn isolation procedures, lockout tagout steps, instrument testing, grounding, moisture risk controls, and safe restoration protocols for shipboard electrical maintenance.

Emergency Muster & Evacuation

Rehearse muster signals, headcounts, route selection, smoke navigation, lifejacket use, lifeboat deployment, equipment checks, and debriefs to strengthen emergency readiness.

Operational Training Solutions

EOT Crane & Heavy Lifting

Operate EOT cranes virtually, with real controllers, practising load control, swing damping, hand signals, blind spots, taglines, rigging checks, and teamwork for lifts.

Berthing & Mooring Operations

Practice mooring line handling, tension control, heaving lines, bollard selection, chafe protection, clear communications, and contingency actions during berthing operations.

Hull Construction & Drydocking

Understand hull block alignment, docking plans, flooding cycles, keel blocks, safety practices, workflows, and coordination across trades during drydocking operations.

Dockside Cargo Handling

Train container stacking, lifting attachments, traffic control, pedestrian zones, marshalling signals, protocols, and interactions to reduce collisions and improve throughput.

Pump Room & Fluid Transfer

Perform loading, discharge, valve lineups, pressure monitoring, leak checks, bonding, grounding, emergency shutdowns, and handovers for safe liquid transfer operations.

Forklift & Yard Vehicle Safety

Practice manoeuvring in tight lanes, reversing controls, load stability, stacking heights, pedestrian awareness, spotter communication, parking discipline, and preuse checks.

Frequently Asked Questions

Get answers to common questions about our VR safety and operations training for shipyards and ports.

How does VR training improve safety compared to classroom sessions or toolbox talks?

VR places crews inside realistic scenarios such as confined space entry, fire response, and crane lifts. Repeated practice builds muscle memory and better decision making. Clients report fewer training related incidents and faster readiness for live tasks.

Can Spatio mirror our equipment and SOPs?

Yes. Modules can reflect your yard layout, vessel areas, cranes, pump rooms, mooring stations, and permits. Procedures, checklists, and lockout tagout steps can match your standards so training transfers directly to site work.

What hardware is required to run the training?

Spatio supports major headsets including Meta Quest, Pico, and HTC Vive. We guide you on headset selection, space planning, and device management for single site and multi site deployments.

How is trainee progress tracked and reported?

Dashboards show completions, assessment scores, errors, and time to competency. Session playbacks help supervisors review technique. Data exports to your LMS or HR system support audits and compliance reporting.

Do you support multilingual crews across GCC and Asia?

Yes. Voice and on-screen text can be localized to English, Arabic, Hindi, Urdu, and other languages used by your teams.

What is the typical implementation timeline?

Standard maritime modules are ready in three to five weeks. Fully customized programs that mirror your equipment and SOPs usually take eight to twelve weeks from kickoff to rollout, including testing and onboarding.
