China's First Chemical Cargo Simulation Training Successfully Launched

The training focuses on enhancing practical skills, relying on the cargo operation simulation system to accurately reproduce real scenarios of key operations, allowing trainees to conduct practical exercises in a safe and controllable environment. It brings potential maritime risk environments into the classroom, not only improving the quality and skills of the crew but also pursuing zero-error command and safety management capabilities in a controllable manner. The training helps effectively to avoid operational risks in actual navigation, achieving "risk-free trial and error and efficient improvement". 

The training strictly adheres to the curriculum requirements of IMO Model Course 1.37, customizing a rigorous course system and assessment system for SC fleet. Through the close integration of theoretical teaching and simulator practical training, it comprehensively enhances the safety skills and emergency response capabilities of the crew in cargo operations.

The coaching team consists of Training Manager Captain Zhang Yumo, Training Executive Capt. Du Jinliang, as well as Capt. Zhou Bingyou, Capt. Zhou Liang, C/O Yue Hua and C/O Zheng Dong, and Trainee C/O Xiang Sunquan from the fleet. They participated in key operation scenarios and directly pointed out the blind spots, hidden dangers, and risks in the practical performance of each group of trainees, achieving good results through "mentoring-style comments". Additionally, Capt. Zhang Huimin, the company's outstanding seafarer of 2025, was specially invited to the site for guidance, sharing his rich maritime experience and professional knowledge with the trainees.

SC SHIPPING Training Center was initiated in March 2025 and completed at the end of November of the same year. The coaching team has all completed professional training and obtained qualifications. The successful holding of the cargo operation simulation training marks a solid step forward for SC SHIPPING in building its own capacity for key skills training of seafarers, providing strong support for the safe operation and high-quality development of SC fleet.

In the future, the company will continue to conduct cargo operation simulation training on a regular basis, with an annual target of 180 trainees. It plans to fully cover the training of deck officers within two years and will continue to conduct rolling training thereafter. Standardized cargo operation training not only strengthens the safety awareness and capabilities of officers but also provides a solid talent guarantee for the safe and efficient navigation of SC vessels, jointly building a safety line for maritime navigation.
