ABSTRACT
The present paper intends to draw the
headlines to the development of a virtual
reality environment using multiagent
technology to simulate hazardous events in
maritime production plants, enabling the
project staff to assess escape routes bringing
safety to the plant and cutting costs in the
production phase.
