The contract includes the development of a ME-GI propulsion configuration based on the Teekay LNG carriers that have recently entered into service. This new configuration will be in addition to the 16 LNG vessel configurations already available within the G-Sim simulator software.

Ray Gillett, Director and General Manager of GTT Training, said: "GTT is very pleased to support Teekay in the continuing optimisation of their training tools, particularly by providing a simulator that includes the latest propulsion system characteristics to be introduced by the company.”

G-Sim provides full simulation of all systems onboard a vessel that are involved in the management and handling of the LNG cargo and maintaining the vessel in a safe condition.
