Cost-effective and fast determination of collision damage

For many years MARIN has advised on safe marine transportation using quantitative traffic data, however, evaluation of collision events was always made by qualitative methods. Recent developments in LNG transportation meant their use could no longer be justified. Therefore, MARIN has recently developed a new quantitative tool for the analysis of collision events involving LNG carriers.

Recent casualties clearly define the need to extend the present quantitative risk assessment method toward different types of incidents and toward different types of involved marine structures.

12 August 2007 - M/V New Flame sunk in shallow water less than a mile from Gibraltar.
7 December 2007 - Thousands of tons of oil spilled near Mallipo beach, South Korea after an oil tanker collided with a barge carrying a crane

The present quantitative risk assessment method as well as the future challenges will be elaborated during the presentation.
