[MaApp] IND2-3: Marine Applications - Safety: [MaApp] Safety
- Yongwon Lee (Lloyd’s Register)
Description
Massive growth in global GDP brings big opportunities to the marine industry, and world trade continues to rise in conformity with economic expansion. Growth in the world economy also results in concern for environmental impact due to marine activities. New environmental regulations are some of the greatest challenges that all marine sectors will face in the forthcoming years.
To make our challenges feasible, enhancing maritime safety should be a high priority always. The activities, in seas and the oceans, are perhaps one of the most dangerous and the most international of all the world's great industries. The coming years are crucial in finding sustainable and commercial solutions that enable us to have safer carbon-neutral vessels for the future. The shipping industry faces an uncertain future, nevertheless, there will be many opportunities. Advances in technology will be the keys to meeting the growing demand, therefore innovative cooperation between academia and industry is significant to achieve our goals.
The Safety session aims to review current state-of-the-art technology and international maritime regulations as well as discuss future development and technology industrialisation with participants from Europe and South Korea. In addition, the session provides opportunities for attendees to find collaboration partners working in the fields.
Massive growth in global GDP brings big opportunities to the marine industry, and world trade continues to rise in conformity with economic expansion. Maritime is at a historic crossroads on the way towards digitalisation, while also facing major sustainability and decarbonisation changes. Growth in the world economy results in concern for environmental impact due to marine activities. New...
Hydrogen is a promising alternative fuel for marine applications with the potential to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Hydrogen, whether in gaseous or liquid form, presents unique properties that require careful consideration for marine environments. The flammability and fast dispersion of gaseous hydrogen pose challenges for detection and suppression of combustion on marine vessels. Liquid...
As decarbonization has become an important issue, traditional marine fuel is being replaced with cryogenic liquids, such as LNG, LPG, and LH2. Cryogenic liquids inevitably generate boil-off gas (BOG) due to the heat caused by a significant temperature difference from the atmosphere, which increases the internal pressure. Hence, BOG handling equipment is required to manage the BOG and maintain...
The safety analysis in maritime industry relies on well-known and established methods. The guidelines for Formal Safety Assessment (FSA) by IMO recommends using failure mode and effect analysis (FMEA), hazard and operability studies (HAZOP), fault tree analysis (FTA), event tree analysis (ETA), and so on. The guidelines for the risk analysis of autonomous ships by the Norwegian Maritime...
