The Analysis of the Causes of Emergencies on the Vessels
Journal Title: TransNav, the International Journal on Marine Navigation and Safety of Sea Transportation - Year 2017, Vol 11, Issue 4
Abstract
The article discusses the results of research conducted on the vessels, covering a wide spectrum of issues relating to the exploitation of vessels of various flags, as well as operating security and safety systems on board. The main aim of the study was to collect numbers of data directly from the crew, for examples: indicate by the crew marine areas with the greatest probability of occurrence of casualties and incidents, trying to the definition the causes of their occurrence, prevention actions used on board and analyses operating safety systems used on the various type of vessels. The analysis of research became the basis to identify strengths and weaknesses areas of the vessel operation. The author proposes a solution to be implemented on board and emphasizes meaning of safety management system.
