Exploitable results
The SAFECO project has contributed to: - The development of a Collision Avoidance Advisory System (CAAS) which has been tested in simulator exercises and implemented onboard a vessel for test trials. The system is developed by Kelvin Hughes and can give onboard advises according to the COLREGS (Convention on the International Regulations for Preventing Collisions at Sea, 1972) based on radar information.
- The development of a Simulator Exercise Assessment (SEA) system which has been tested in simulator exercises and is now implemented as an integral part of Kongsberg Norcontrol Systems simulators.
- The development of the Marine Accident Risk Calculation System (MARCS) which is used to quantify levels of risk and the effect of risk control options in defined geographical areas. The system is now applied in the advisory services given by Det Norske Veritas.
- The development of a risk model for propulsion systems with related failure rates for the components. Marintek and Det Norske Veritas have applied the model to identify critical components for improved maintenance strategies.
- The development and analysis of databases for marine casualties. This work has given the National Technical University of Athens and Det Norske Veritas valuable data to understand and model the causes and conditions resulting in ship accidents.
- The further development of structural integrity models for reliability assessments of ship designs and maintenance strategies. This forms an important knowledge basis for further research to be carried out at Insituto Superior Tecnico, Technical University of Lisbon.
- The development of a risk model for the Port of Rotterdam area and the identification of causes and conditions (including the effect of Vessel Traffic Services, VTS) that influence the level of risk in this area. The model and data were developed by the Marine Safety Rotterdam and the Rotterdam Port Authority and is now applied to assess the effect of port regulations.
- The development of a numerical model for navigator performance. This work included monitoring of numerous parameters during training sessions which formed the basis for the model. The model has been successfully applied to test cases, resulting in sailing trajectories to a defined port as function of parameter variations. The model was developed by Risø and the Danish Maritime Institute and will be applied in advisory services.
- The further development of models and data to quantify the effect of ship manoeuvrability capabilities. This forms an important knowledge basis for further research to be carried out at the National Technical University of Athens. - The development of a model to assess the effect of personal and organizational factors with particular emphasis on the effect of the International Safety Management Code (ISM). The model was developed by Marintek and Det Norske Veritas and forms an important basis for future research in this area.
