Investigating the potential of maritime serious game design in SIRE 2.0 Context: GAMESIRE 2.0

Pre-vetting inspection is a critical process to enhance safety and environmental protection onboard tanker ships. The current study firstly proposes a serious game design model, namely GAMESIRE 2.0, for crew upskilling in tanker vetting requirements. This study considers recently updated requirements of Ship Inspection Report (SIRE 2.0) Programme of Oil Companies International Marine Forum (OCIMF). Using GAMESIRE 2.0 model, preliminary design of a serious game-based training is conducted in preparation for SIRE 2.0 Clause # 4.2.1, which focuses on navigational procedures on passage planning and execution. Further maritime studies might utilize GAMESIRE 2.0 model to design additional serious games in SIRE 2.0 context. In fact, scope of GAMESIRE 2.0
