If you’re looking for a role that provides constant challenge and variety, then look no further. Role Responsibility Phase I -Twelve months orientation by foreign national of the understudies:

Introduction MOSES – a software developed by Ultramarine to simulate marine and structural of marine operation.
Basic MOSES Language – basic command to operate program which include operation coding and syntax
Modelling – develop vessel model into MOSES to compute hydrostat, stability, ballasting and other operation
Ballasting – model ballast compartment of actual vessel tanks and find the resulting condition
Stability – calculate ship behaves at sea, both in still water and in waves, whether intact or damage condition

Phase II – Twelve months on the job training proper of the understudies:

Motion Analysis – Compute motion and acceleration during marine transportation based on frequency response of cargo.
Load-out – introduce how to operate moses based on load-out requirements of different site
Load-in – detail engineering of load transferring cargo from barge to quay with SPMT or skidding
Mooring – marine specification of controlling barge during marine operation
Float-off – utilizing submergible barge to off load heavy floatable cargoes

Phase III – Twelve months Transition:

Project execution – train understudies for actual site execution in project
Site operation – expose understudies to onshore and offshore operation to gain site experience
FEED study – guide understudies to perform front end engineering design for offshore development project
Detail engineering – prepare them for marine operation engineering to be able to perform analysis for detail design.
