Neste Jacobs has released a new product portfolio called NAPCON Games, which will gamify operator training. NAPCON Games can be combined with traditional operator training methods to improve the operator training for the process industry.

The first game to be launched is a transformational mobile game; NAPCON Games Fuel Blender. This enables players to be in charge of creating the optimal product. In nine different levels with a variety of difficulties, the player is in charge of blending the optimal end-product with the available components and resources.

NAPCON Games Fuel Blender tests the players' skills as a fuel blender and allows them to compete with others to see how their fuel blend stacks up against others based on profit. It is an interactive and engaging way of testing fuel blending skills and to learn more about the different components that go into a fuel blend. This game does not require any previous experience or knowledge of operator work nor fuel blending.

"Gamifying is a very current topic at the moment and we are now the only company providing gaming solutions for the process industry. The NAPCON Games Fuel Blender is the first new generation game of its kind for basic training of different blending scenarios", says Jyri Lindholm, Head of Product Management of NAPCON, Neste Jacobs.
