Maritime transport is responsible for 3 percent of global greenhouse gas emissions. To meet environmental regulations, technologies such as Wind-Assisted Ship Propulsion (WASP) are being considered. However, maritime officers' training needs to be adapted, as sailing is not sufficiently covered in current curricula. The SOMOS project aims to develop a navigation simulator for merchant vessels equipped with WASP, incorporating realistic training scenarios such as failure management. This simulator will enable sailors to prepare for the use of these technologies and contribute to the reduction of emissions in maritime transport. In this paper, we present the results of a student work with the goal of identifying minimal requirements for bridge maritime simulators including WASP technologies.
