Enhancing Safety and Training In Oil & Gas Industry

Client Overview:

Seaborne Energy Solutions, a distinguished leader in offshore oil exploration and production, operates in some of the world's most challenging marine environments. Dedicated to safety and operational excellence, Seaborne continually seeks innovative solutions to ensure the well-being and preparedness of its offshore workforce.


Challenge:

Seaborne Energy Solutions faced a pressing challenge in providing comprehensive safety training for its offshore personnel, especially concerning helicopter operations and offshore logistics. The company recognized that traditional training methods fell short in adequately preparing employees for the dynamic and potentially hazardous conditions they encounter during daily operations.


Solution:

Understanding Seaborne's unique needs, Star Maven Digital collaborated closely with the company to develop a bespoke VR application aimed at addressing safety concerns while enhancing training effectiveness. The VR application focused on simulating realistic scenarios, including helicopter flights from base to offshore rigs, subtly integrating safety protocols, equipment familiarization, fire safety, and maintenance procedures into the immersive experience.

Key Features of the VR Training Application:


01 - Realistic Helicopter Flying Experience:

Trainees immersed themselves in a virtual environment, experiencing the complexities of helicopter operations firsthand as they navigated from the base to offshore oil rigs in the midst of the ocean. This practical scenario served as a focal point for safety training, subtly integrating safety protocols, emergency procedures, and fire safety measures into the training experience.


02 - Equipment Familiarization:

Trainees immersed themselves in a virtual environment, experiencing the complexities of helicopter operations firsthand as they navigated from the base to offshore oil rigs in the midst of the ocean. This practical scenario served as a focal point for safety training, subtly integrating safety protocols, emergency procedures, and fire safety measures into the training experience.


03 - Maintenance Simulations:

Trainees immersed themselves in a virtual environment, experiencing the complexities of helicopter operations firsthand as they navigated from the base to offshore oil rigs in the midst of the ocean. This practical scenario served as a focal point for safety training, subtly integrating safety protocols, emergency procedures, and fire safety measures into the training experience.

Partnering with Star Maven Digital has been a game-changer for us at Seaborne Energy. Their expertise in immersive tech completely transformed our safety training. The immersive helicopter flying experience they developed is absolutely incredible! They've truly elevated our safety standards and prepared our team like never before. - Sanchez | VP-Operations (APAC)

The implementation of the VR yielded significant benefits:
