The Amsterdam NDSM Wharf is home to RelyOn Nutec’s unique state-of-the-art training centre. The industrial building offers safety training facilities for professionals from the offshore, maritime and wind industry. Given that almost all of the training courses are held indoors, they can continue regardless of the weather conditions.
In the building you will find two swimming pools for helicopter underwater escape training and sea survival training. In one of the swimming pools we can create waves to simulate real life scenarios. We also have extended GWO training facilities for working and rescue at height scenarios.
Training ship
In 2019, the RelyOn Nutec Amsterdam the Netherlands training location has been expanded with a training ship including a live fire simulator and life boats. The interior of the ship has a cabin, galley, storage room and fuel treatment room. The ship has an engine room consisting of two levels. As a result, live fires with different types of fuel can be lit in controlled conditions. A conventional and free-fall lifeboat are attached to the exterior of the ship.
Thanks to the extensive facilities on board the ship, the entire ‘command & control’ chain can be trained. The combination of firefighting and lifeboat facilities makes it possible to train various scenarios, including the actual abandonment of the ship if the incident cannot be controlled. The ship also offers the participants the opportunity to practice working in and rescue from confined spaces.
