K-Sim® Cargo Product Carrier

Our Product Carrier model is based on a real double-hull vessel. It features seven pairs of cargo tanks, including one pair designated for slops. Each tank pair is equipped with its own independent loading and discharging lines, as well as dedicated systems for Vapour Emission Control (VEC) and inerting. Submerged, hydraulically driven cargo pumps are installed in each tank, enabling efficient cargo handling operations.

Training levels

This simulator is designed to support the following training levels:

  • Junior officers – Basic cargo operations
  • Senior officers – Full cargo operations including loading, discharging, cooling down and venting
  • Senior officers and captains – Advanced cargo-handling operations

Training Objectives

The main aim of this model is to provide a full understanding of cargo-handling operations. Specific learning goals include:

  • Getting familiar with all parts of the cargo system
  • Planning cargo loading or discharge using the LoadMaster load computer
  • Lining up for loading and ballast handling at the same time (with atmosphere checks)
  • Using vapour emission control (VEC) during operations
  • Controlling cargo flow into each tank and managing the ship’s trim and list
  • Completing topping up and final loading
  • Preparing and lining up for discharge, including inert gas system use
  • Starting discharge from one or more tanks with different cargo types
  • Tank washing, with correct pressure and spray angles
  • Draining and emptying final tanks
  • Final ballast adjustment for departure
  • Heating cargo during the voyage
  • Venting tanks for inspection or dry docking, using explosion diagrams for each tank (included in the model)
