VR SOP Training for LNG Terminals & Cryogenic Handling

Custom-built VR to rehearse high-hazard, low-frequency procedures—safely and repeatedly

LNG import/export terminals operate at the intersection of cryogenic risk, high pressure, and major accident hazard regulation. Spark Emerging Technologies Ltd designs and builds bespoke VR SOP training that mirrors your berths, loading arms, manifolds, storage tanks, boil-off gas (BOG) systems and ESD layers—so crews can practise critical tasks without exposure to real-world consequences.

Terminal pain points our VR addresses

  • Cryogenic safety: line cool-down/warm-up, frost bite risk, brittle fracture, purge and inerting routines.
  • Ship–shore interface: pre-transfer checks, loading arm connection, ESD-1/ESD-2 logic and drills.
  • Process upsets: overpressure/underpressure events, BOG compressor trips, relief and vent control.
  • Permit-to-work & isolation: LOTO, confined spaces, hot work restrictions, area classification.
  • Emergency response: leak detection, gas dispersion awareness, muster and evacuation routes.

How a bespoke VR build works

  1. Discovery & site audit: capture SOPs, P&IDs, ESD cause-and-effect, and berthing procedures.
  2. Scenario design: cool-down/warm-up, line-up/mis-line-up, ship–shore transfer, BOG management.
  3. AI avatar guidance: step prompts aligned to your exact wording, permits and hold points.
  4. Assessment & analytics: right-first-time execution, time-to-safe-state, critical control adherence.
  5. Integration: LMS connectivity, multilingual modules, role-based training (jetty, control room, maintenance).

Operational outcomes

  • Fewer transfer deviations and faster recovery from process upsets.
  • Improved ESD discipline and auditable competence evidence.
  • Safer contractor onboarding during shutdowns and projects.
  • Greater confidence for regulators and insurers.

Why Spark

No off-the-shelf content—your VR twin is built from your assets, SOPs and emergency plans to translate directly to the jetty and control room.
