On 25th January, Swire Adonai Services Limited ("SAS"), a joint venture between Adonai Shipping Limited and Swire Pacific Offshore Operations Pte Limited ("SPO"), officially opened the new Ghana Marine Training Centre ("GMTC").
Designed to provide a stimulating learning environment for the training of deck officers and engineers, GMTC includes a simulator room, a classroom equipped with seven desktop simulators, and an in-house library. Two Dynamic Positioning console units, donated from the SPO fleet, allow participants to gain a realistic sense of the actual equipment used on board an offshore supply vessel. The Marine Training Centre aims to become an important local education facility for Ghanaian seafarers, and will provide dynamic positioning, safety, and other training courses.
