About

OSC was founded in 2004 based on a market need for more efficient training of personnel involved in demanding offshore operations.

Our headquarter is in Ålesund, Norway, the heart of one of the biggest and most successful maritime clusters in the world.

Based on operational knowhow from the maritime cluster, advanced computer technology and mathematics, OSC is now the provider of the worlds most advanced simulators for Anchor Handling and Platform Supply Vessel operations. Top-notch 3D graphics display and a simulator core that can be interfaced with all required vessel systems and equipment makes the simulator experience very realistic.

Together with Aalesund University College (Høgskolen i Ålesund) OSC have implemented a unique training concept for team-based training of offshore vessel crews. More than one thousand offshore crew members have been participating in training in the OSC simulators in Norway, with excellent feedback from the participants.

OSC can also provide complete training centre design & layout services. Utilizing modern 3D visualisation software and applying professional artistic/design skills, we can help build highly functional and aestethically pleasing training facilities.

We have delivered complete training centres to customers in France, Singapore, and Norway. In 2011 we will finalize the worlds biggest offshore simulator centre in Australia.

In 2010 we also introduced advanced crane simulation, with special focus on lifting operations related to subsea operations.
