Obiettivo In recent tanker accidents Erika and Prestige in European waters with catastrophic consequences, structural deficiencies may have largely contributed to the accident. Casualty investigation after the Prestige accident identified the need for better understanding in areas of the detecting of defects and weaknesses during and after survey and after repairs, the reduction of any adverse effects of repairs, current strength requirements for deck opening securing arrangements, etc. This Coordination Action project ALERT is proposed in response to this need. The ALERT project (Assessment of Life-cycle Effect of Repairs on Tankers) will undertake a thorough examination of current R&D practices of European industry in the field of ship repair and to propose improvements to the underlying processes in consultation with industry. The project aims to critically review the current and emerging technologies, identify and prioritise future R&D needs and developments in the areas of ship repair practices (WP1), Condition monitoring of ships (WP2), Structural assessment methodologies (WP3) and Through life management (WP4). Finally, the project will disseminate and exploit the results through publications, seminars and workshops and prepare R&D project proposals (WP5). The proposed ALERT project fits in very well to the objective of Research Domain 4.12 ?Developing technologies to sense and predict natural and infrastructure conditions affecting safety and efficiency of transport operations? on the following grounds: it deals with developing technologies appropriate for ship repair practices and sensing technologies to monitor ships; it promotes ship safety through maintaining structural integrity and efficiency through better monitoring, inspection, maintenance and repair scheduling for tankers. The consortium consists of 10 technology and industry partners which represent all the industry sectors in a complementary manner - essential for the success of the project Campo scientifico social sciencessocial geographytransport Programma(i) FP6-SUSTDEV - Sustainable Development, Global Change and Ecosystems: thematic priority 6 under the Focusing and Integrating Community Research programme 2002-2006.
