Transas partners with XRV Simulation

Transas and XVR Simulation have entered into a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to expand their maritime training capabilities and to deploy common complex projects in the safety and security simulation market.

Transas and XVR Simulation are currently exploring technical integration for a range of specific training needs. One of the common solutions for the large customer base of Transas is an advanced fire fighting training solution.
