Aluminium Bahrain (Alba), one of the world’s largest aluminium smelters, has partnered with Atyaf eSolutions Co., to implement Virtual Reality (VR) technology in five different areas for its in-house training courses.
Alba’s Chief Executive Officer Ali Al Baqali and the Chairman of Atyaf eSolutions Ubaydli Y Ubaydli signed the deal on 12 July 2023 at Alba premises for the pilot project.
The VR training on ‘Potline Emergencies’ will provide Alba employees with a safe and realistic platform to learn about Potlines and procedures that should be followed as well as actions in emergency cases such as tap out, open circuit, prolonged power outage, failure of alumina supply & failure of compressed air supply.
Alba’s CEO Ali Al Baqali stated: “Virtual Reality is a medium -- a means by which our employees can learn in a safe and immersive environment without the risk of injury -- and this is when seeing evolves to believing.
Following the successful implementation and evaluation of the ‘Potline Emergencies’ training, Alba will go ahead with the remaining VR training projects with Atyaf Solutions.
