Shipowner Evangelos Marinakis’ Capital Group is investing in a new seafarer training centre in Greece.
Norwegian technology group Kongsberg said it will deliver an advanced K-Sim engine room and cargo simulators to the facility in Chios.
“The investment underscores Capital Group’s commitment to high-quality training for its crew, enhancing both general STCW [International Convention on Standards of Training, Certification and Watchkeeping for Seafarers] training and product familiarisation with onboard automation systems,” the partners said.
