VR SOP Training for Petrochemicals & Bulk Chemicals

Standardise complex operations across plants and shifts with a custom VR build

From polymerisation to chlor-alkali and fertiliser production, chemical plants demand rigorous adherence to SOPs amid evolving regulations. Spark creates bespoke VR SOP training models of your assets—reactors, distillation columns, storage/transfer systems—embedding your exact operating envelopes, interlocks, and safety barriers.

Key pain points in chemical operations

• Batch & continuous complexity: recipe control, charge sequences, temperature/pressure windows.
• Hazardous substances: toxic/flammable chemicals, ATEX zones, venting and scrubbing systems.
• Changeovers & cleaning: line clearance, CIP/SIP, contamination prevention.
• Emergency handling: deviations, relief events, spill response, evacuation routes.
• Documentation: operator logs, deviation notes, permit evidence, training records.

Our bespoke VR methodology

1. SOP capture with SMEs: translate tacit knowledge into clear, stepwise interactions.
2. Risk-based scenarios: normal ops, abnormal situations, and emergency drills.
3. Avatar guidance: AI assistant reinforces alarms, limits, PPE, and environmental controls.
4. Assessment & feedback: records critical steps, timing, right-first-time, and corrective prompts.
5. Integration: LMS/CMMS links, shift-handover checklists, multilingual deployment.

Operational outcomes

• Improved adherence to operating envelopes and critical controls.
• Reduced contamination, off-spec batches, and rework.
• Better emergency readiness and incident learning retention.
• Demonstrable competence for audits and customer assurance.

Built for your plant—never generic

Every module is custom-made to your unit operations, signage, and real hazards—so training translates directly to the job.
