Emirates Simulation Academy (ESA), a joint venture among the three companies — Al Qudra Holding (UAE), CERT (UAE) and GSE Systems (USA) — has invested Dh100 million to set up a high-tech Simulation Centre in Abu Dhabi.
It boasts five simulation classrooms which are all designed to address the operational needs for the region’s main industries including power generation, water desalination, petroleum refinery and offshore oil and gas platform.
The academy was launched at a ceremony attended by senior management from Al Qudra Holding, CERT, and GSE Systems (USA), as well as other prominent UAE business representatives.
Through their custom-designed-systems approach training simulation exercises, trainees are taught how to respond to emergencies and are provided with situations that mirror those they would normally encounter in a plant or facility.
Mahmood Ebraheem Al Mahmood, CEO of Al Qudra Holding said that ESA is the unique facility in MENA region.
