A major advance in offshore training
Pisys is pleased to introduce Fiel Foxtrot, the latest addition to our OTS (Operations Training Simulators) product range, developed to support advanced MEMIR (Major Emergency Management Initial Response) and operational training programmes.
The model delivers simulation of dynamic positioning, dual well centre drilling operations, integrated marine and drilling power management, Fire & Gas systems, helideck monitoring, and structured ESD logic—enabling customers to extend scenario-based emergency response, command decision-making, and systems management training into the complex deepwater drilling environment while maintaining the consistent architecture and realism of the Pisys OTS platform.
Representing a modern deepwater, double-derrick semi-submersible drilling vessel, Foxtrot expands the Fiel fleet portfolio beyond production-focused models in the Pisys range such as Fiel Alpha (Offshore Production Platform), Fiel Bravo (Multi-Jacket Installation), Fiel Charlie (FPSO), Fiel Delta (Jackup Rig), and Fiel Echo (Offshore Production for CROs).
What Our Customers Say
A Fantastic Tool
The Pisys simulator has been excellent. It’s a fantastic tool, the customer service has been exemplary, and any project management we’ve needed has been superb.
Configurability
One of the strengths of the Pisys Training Simulator is that it is easy to change it, add to it, and improve it.
Huge Business Benefits
Overall the Pisys OTS simulator is a massive benefit to our business and we're really excited about the new opportunities we're getting as customers find out what we can offer.
BOOK A DEMO
We’ll walk you through our Training Simulator; letting you evaluate its features and user experience first-hand.
The simulator models a typical 3-leg self-elevating offshore drilling vessel (jack-up) with high fidelity, including marine operations, jacking/elevation, vessel motion from waves/wind/current, and soil/footing interactions such as “punch-through”
It gives operators realistic instrumentation, control panels and scenario-based training environments.
It is aimed at personnel involved in jack-up operations: rig operators, barge engineers, jacking-control operators, and marine operations staff.
It can also be used for assessment/competency checking of elevated operations in offshore industries.
The simulator enables a wide range of scenarios such as:
Vessel transit, positioning and leg deployment
Elevation (lifting out of the water) under waves, wind and current
Leg penetration into the seabed and bearing‐capacity interactions
Unexpected events: punch-through, stuck leg extraction, rapid penetration, rack phase difference (RPD) issues.
Use of instrumentation and control panels under varying site/soil/environmental conditions.
Several aspects contribute:
Authentic instrumentation and control panel replication so operators familiar with real vessels recognise the interface.
Algorithms that compute drag and inertia forces in real time due to vessel motion, waves, wind and current, plus bearing-capacity curves for soil/footing analysis.
Ability to introduce critical events (e.g., punch-through) for training under realistic risk scenarios.
Yes, all our simulators are accessible online and many of our customers value the ability to train without travelling.
Some benefits include:
Safe environment to practice high-risk operations (e.g., punch-through, leg extraction) without real-world consequences.
Ability to train for rare/unplanned events and varied environmental/seabed conditions.
Enhanced familiarity with instrumentation/control panels in a realistic environment.
Potential cost savings by reducing real asset downtime and risk, and improving operator competence before real-world deployment.
Yes — the simulator incorporates algorithms based on bearing capacity curves for the site and environmental loads (waves, wind, current).
Yes — the system allows varying site/soil bearing curves, environmental/load conditions, and user-defined events. This allows training for site‐specific conditions and even rare/unplanned events. (Based on typical simulator capabilities).
Pisys are also able to create a model based on your specific requirements - contact them for more details
The system can be deployed on-site, with a moving platform option if required for added realism. It is also available on-line as part of our 'train without travelling' range,
Cyber Essentials Plus Certified
Cyber Essentials Plus helps us guard our organisation against cyber attacks. This is important because vulnerability to basic attacks can mark us out as a target for more in-depth unwanted attention from cyber criminals and others. Certification gives us and our customers peace of mind that our defences will protect against the vast majority of common cyber attacks simply because these attacks are exploiting targets which do not have the Cyber Essentials Plus technical controls in place.
ISO 27001 Certified
We strive to ensure the integrity, confidentiality and availability of all systems and data used by Pisys in their delivery of hosted applications to their worldwide client base, protecting these systems and data from all threats, internal and external, deliberate and accidental. To do this, we have deployed an information security management system (‘ISMS’) compliant with the ISO/IEC 27001 information security standard to meet our information security policy. The ISMS will allow compliance with customer contracts, and relevant laws of the UK and any company within which Pisys Ltd operates.
