Product catalog summary
Purpose:
The Liquid Cargo Handling Simulator (LCHS) is designed to train tanker officers in safe cargo handling operations as per Chapter V of the STCW Code. It focuses on practical skills and correct sequences of cargo operations.

Simulator Components:
The simulator includes an Instructor WorkPlace and multiple Student WorkPlaces. Instructors can interact with students in real-time, control operations, and save class data.

Simulated Cargo Handling Systems:
  • Crude Oil Tanker: Features three cargo lines with pumps for loading and discharging, crude oil washing, and tank stripping. Includes an Inert Gas System and ballast operations.
  • Chemical Tanker: Contains 33 cargo tanks for various chemical cargo types, each with an independent cargo system. Includes a Nitrogen-based Inert Gas System and ballast operations.
  • LNG Gas Tanker: Supports cargo load and discharge operations, Inert Gas System launch, and ballast system control. Includes training for pre-dock and post-dock operations.

Features:
All models include a cargo calculation system for stability, hull strength, draught, list, and trim control per IMO requirements. Operations can be performed in real-time or accelerated mode, with bidirectional messaging between instructors and students.

Regulations:
  • STCW Convention: Regulations V/1-1, V/1-2
  • STCW Code: Sections A-V/1-1 and A-V/1-2, specifying minimum competence standards for oil, chemical, and liquefied gas tanker operations.

IMO Model Courses:
  • 2.06 “Oil Tanker Cargo and Ballast Handling Simulator”
  • “Tanker Familiarization”
  • “Specialized Training for Oil Tankers”
  • “Specialized Training for Chemical Tankers”
  • 1.06 “Specialized Training for Liquefied Gas Tankers”

LCHS Liquid cargo handling simulator-1

LCHS LIQUID CARGO HANDLING SIMULATOR Purpose: Liquid Cargo Handling Simulator (LCHS) is intended to train officers of tankers responsible for the safe cargo handling operations in accordance with Chapter V of STCW Code. LCHS allows: • drilling practical skills in tanker cargo operations, with due consideration of ship and crew safety, • training step-by-step the correct sequences of cargo operations. • Simulator software consists of Instructor WorkPlace and desired number of Student WorkPlaces. Instructor Instructor has possibility of interference into actions of Student by connecting to them in real time mode. Instructor performs control, may influence operations performed by Students, may save main data on the classes. The following cargo handling systems are simulated in LCHS Student software: • Crude Oil Tanker (Hanne Knutsen, dwt - 123851 t); • Chemical Tanker (Stolt Sea, dwt - 22198 t); • LNG Gas Tanker (Bilbao Knutsen, dwt - 68530 t). Crude Oil Tanker Model contains cargo system, consisting of three cargo lines with the pumps, which allows drilling sequences of operations during load and discharge through three manifolds at once. There is a possibility of crude oil washing training and final tank stripping. Model includes Inert Gas System, its launch is possible from fuel injection valves, engine room exhaust gases. It is possible to launch systems in ventilation mode. Simulator provides possibility of ballast operation by isolated ballast. Simulation of cargo pumping is in "ship-to-Ship" mode. Chemical Tanker Model has function of drilling sequences of operations required for loading, discharge and internal fuel transfers. Model contains 33 cargo tanks, which allow drilling of carrying large amount of chemical cargo types, with due consideration of different cargo compatibility and its correct separation onboard. Each tank has independent cargo system, including a separate cargo pump. Simulator provides possibility of ballast operation by isolated ballast. Model includes Inert Gas System based on Nitrogen gas, produced from micromolecular filters. Target groups Deck - Management Deck - Operational Engine - Management Engine - Operational Ship types Oil tanker Chemical tanker Gas tanker

LCHS LIQUID CARGO HANDLING SIMULATOR Regulations Gas Tanker Model allows drilling of cargo load and discharge operations, including running-ups of training for cargo operations. Simulator also includes launch of Inert Gas System and control of isolated ballast system. Simulator includes possibility of training operations required before entering the dock, and operations needed to perform after leaving the dock before loading the cargo. There is also possibility of simulation ballast passage and passage with loaded cargo, with performing of correct sequences of all required actions for execution...
