About
SIMTECH is a Russian IT company with extensive experience in developing simulators for marine and offshore operations, personnel training and testing systems, and creating innovative software to solve a wide range of problems in the maritime industry.
For over 15 years, our team has collaborated with the Norwegian company Kongsberg Maritime Simulation (Kongsberg Digital AS) in the development of maritime simulators for offshore and crane operations (K-Sim Offshore © and Crane simulator), engine room simulators for various vessels (K-SIM Engine) and additional software systems for vessels digital twins development.
Also, our team has been involved in cooperation with Heerema Marine Contractors (HMC) in the digital twins development of largest crane vessels Sleipnir, Thialf, Balder and Aegir, and software development for HMC Simulation Center, which has no analogues on the market.
SIMTECH is currently developing and implementing its own software solutions on the Russian and global
markets, actively cooperating with leading companies in the maritime industry.
Since 2018, our company has been registered in the Russian Register of accredited IT organizations.

Autonomous ship handling simulation software (ASHSS)
The simulation software package for debugging autonomous navigation algorithms is designed for computer simulation in a virtual environment of navigation scenarios typical for the tasks of towing and mooring ships.
Learn moreOperator station for the Dynamic Positioning system (DP Trainer)
The simulator is designed to train the marine specialists to operate the dynamic positioning system (DPS), which also includes the Instructor application, visualization and basic VTS.
Learn moreSemi-submersible drilling rig
The simulator is designed to train marine specialists to operate and work at semi-submersible drilling rig without sending trainees to a real operating rig.
Learn moreVR: virtual reality simulator for crew transfer from the vessel to an offshore platform and back
Multi-user virtual reality simulator for training of crew transfer to / from a rig to the supply vessel. Personnel is transferred in a special transportation basket by rig’s crane.
Learn moreVR: Helideck simulator
Multi-user virtual reality Helideck simulator allows practicing operations on the helideck either on an offshore platform or any vessel.
