An extended form of the Kirk J. G. and Schneider P. (1988, Astron. Astrophys., 201) method for simulation of energetic particle transport in weakly disturbed magnetic fields is presented. It is based on the mean field + perturbations decomposition of magnetic field, i.e. a particle is considered to propagate in the mean field along its undisturbed adiabatic trajectory, while the magnetic field inhomogeneities are allowed for by perturbing the trajectory parameters in finite time-steps. For the application of the method, a simulation of a particle shock acceleration in relativistic shock waves with oblique magnetic fields is realised.
