Ice Academy

Transatlantic Ice Academy is a unique, company-sponsored training program that provides cutting-edge training in ice management and icebreaking. The Transatlantic Ice Academy offers theoretical and practical ice training to Transatlantic and to the officers and crew of clients/partners, thus preparing them for demanding operations in icy conditions.

The current training programs consist of the following: “Ice training”, “Arctic training”, “Cold climate shipping” and “Dynamic positioning operations in Arctic waters”.

In the Ice Academy’s advanced vessel simulator, it is also possible to set up an entire Arctic offshore operation in order to train the crews in advance of the actual Arctic operation.

The Transatlantic Ice Academy is operated in partnership with the Kalmar Maritime Academy and is approved by the Swedish Maritime Authorities to issue the official ice endorsement required to work under icy conditions.
