VR SOP Training for Offshore Wind Marine Transfers

Safer transfers and clearer decision-making at sea

Offshore wind maintenance depends on safe vessel operations and disciplined permits. Spark creates bespoke VR training that mirrors your CTV/SOV transfer steps, gangway routines, PPE checks, weather limits and incident response—so technicians practise the full routine without risk.

Common challenges

  • Go/no-go decisions: sea state, wind, visibility and safe limits.
  • Transfer technique: timing, three points of contact and safe staging.
  • Permit discipline: briefings, tool control and emergency plans.
  • Incidents: slip/fall response and rapid evacuation readiness.

How our bespoke build works

  1. Capture SOPs & limits: marine procedures, PPE requirements and transfer criteria.
  2. Create scenarios: calm transfer, marginal conditions, abort transfer and emergency response.
  3. Coach in VR: prompts matched to your briefings and checklists.
  4. Assess: decision quality, safe behaviours and procedural adherence.

Benefits

  • Fewer incidents and better safety culture.
  • More consistent go/no-go decisions.
  • Audit-ready competence evidence for operators.

Why Spark

Your vessels, your limits—trained in VR so teams are ready before they step onto the gangway.
