CHILEMAR has been designed to provide training for performing submarine escape and rescue (SER) operations.

The exercise included a practice scenario, wherein personnel from the simulated distressed submarine were rescued by DSU’s pressurised rescue module (PRM) and transferred to the rescue vessel.
