Dynamic positioning workflow
Dynamic positioning training requires more than joystick practice. Operators need to understand environmental loads, thruster response, power status, alarms and the team communication that keeps the vessel inside operational limits.
ERUN, developed by Wuhan Erun Technology Co., Ltd., uses this kind of training question to guide simulator configuration, from visual scenes and control logic to replay evidence and instructor decision support.
What the programme should cover
- Start with normal station keeping and environmental awareness
- Add sensor, thruster and power-management failures gradually
- Train bridge and engine-room coordination during abnormal events
- Use replay to review position history and decision timing
ERUN perspective
ERUN designs simulator projects around instructor control, repeatable scenarios, trainee workload and post-exercise debriefing. The goal is to make each exercise visible, measurable and useful for the next training decision.
DP simulation helps teams practise the moment when technical changes become operational risk.
