The modern remotely operated vehicle (ROV) simulator is a very sophisticated piece of equipment, extensively used for training personnel both offshore and onshore. Simulators are being used increasingly for other applications including project modelling, tooling interfacing and accident investigation. With these diverse and increasing uses in mind, the International Marine Contractors Association (IMCA) is holding a half day workshop with the theme âThe Diverse role of the ROV Simulatorâ during Oceanology International on Wednesday 14 March 2012 at the ExCeL Conference & Exhibition Centre, London. âThe workshopâs aim is to present and discuss current and future ROV simulation technology.
