MARIN has a long history in Dynamic Positioning (DP) model testing and computer simulations. In recent years there has been increasing interest in the application of DP systems. And in the past two decades the DP performance of numerous drilling vessels, semi- submersibles, installation vessels and shuttle tankers has been investigated in MARIN's basins. Two recent projects are highlighted.
