Modern plants are complex, fast-moving, and unforgiving. Engineers who walk in with only textbook knowledge often struggle in their first months on the job — and the cost of that learning curve is paid in safety incidents, lost production, and slow career progression.


This webinar explores how digital twin technology and Operator Training Simulators (OTS) are transforming the way engineers prepare for real plant operations. Drawing on his experience as both an OTS product manager and a former ethylene plant operator, Daian Khamitov will demonstrate how RTsim digital twins replicate live plant behavior — allowing engineers to practice startups, shutdowns, process upsets, and emergency scenarios without ever putting an asset, a person, or production at risk.


Whether you are a student stepping toward your first role, a young engineer building competency, or a training manager planning your team's next development cycle, this session will give you a clear view of what modern simulator-based training looks like — and how it builds the operational confidence that real plants demand.

Webinar Objectives

By the end of this webinar, participants will be able to:


Understand the role of digital twins and Operator Training Simulators (OTS) in modern plant operations.


Identify the most common gaps between university coursework and real plant work — and the proven ways to close them.


Recognize how simulator-based training accelerates competency development for new engineers and operators.


Evaluate the safety, productivity, and ROI benefits of OTS-driven training programs.


Explore practical use cases of RTsim digital twins across the energy and petrochemical industries.


Take away a clear framework for integrating simulator training into engineering education and corporate L&D programs.

About the Presenter

Khamitov Daian


Product Manager & Facilitator — RTsim.Career


Daian develops advanced Operator Training Simulators (OTS) for the energy industry. A Chemical Engineering graduate of Beijing University of Chemical Technology, he brings real-world industrial experience as a former operator at a 300,000 TPA ethylene production plant.


His work addresses one of engineering education's biggest challenges: bridging the gap between university theory and real plant operations. Through RTsim digital twins, Daian helps young engineers build practical, job-ready skills before they ever step onto a live site.
