Aboa Mare Ups Training Capabilities with Kongsberg Maritime’s Simulator

Finland-based Aboa Mare has strengthened its maritime training capabilities by investing in a K-Sim Engine Full Mission and Desktop Simulator system from Kongsberg Maritime.

The delivery is set to be completed in the first quarter of 2026 and will include some of the most advanced simulator models available, comprising both conventional and next-generation propulsion technologies, such as hybrid, battery, dual-fuel, LNG and methanol-fuelled engines.

With the new simulator, Aboa Mare’s students and professional seafarers will receive practical training that aligns with the global maritime industry’s green transition.

The K-Sim Engine simulator system is fully compliant with STCW requirements and DNV standard ST-0033 and will be delivered with DNV Class A & C certification, ensuring the highest levels of quality and realism in maritime training. The simulator will be the first at Aboa Mare with DNV classification.

“We are committed to delivering high-quality training that reflects the latest developments in maritime operations. The collaboration with Kongsberg enables us to provide realistic and future-oriented learning environments.

“By integrating the latest propulsion technologies into our training, we are ensuring that our students and customers are well prepared to contribute to the industry’s green transition,” said Thomas Lundberg, Simulator Manager, Aboa Mare.
