@Hellraiser: I think the researchers are sure to have visited U 995, but they apparently had other sources or they would not have taken the old version of the electric engine room... I don't know if the bench would still be in U 995 if it had been installed by the Norwegian Navy: the conning tower has exactly been restored as it was in WWII.

@fraukaleun: Very interesting picture. In my opinion it seems quite implausible that the British Navy should have installed a bench in a captured German submarine during the war. They wanted to understand the capabilities of this boats, but they did not plan to put it into active service as far as I know...

Thank you for your help guys!
