  • While the vessel become bigger and high speed, navigational passages become narrow due to an enlargement of all sorts of new ports, sea-crossing bridges and anchorages, leading to the high probability of marine accidents. Furthermore, a constant increase in the maritime transportation and the traffic volume on the sea led to a variety of sea traffic environments and it is a trend for the demand for the sea transportation environment to increase steadily. At this point of time, the Ministry of Land, Transport, and Maritime Affairs introduced the Korea Maritime Safety Laws evaluating the degree that The Safety Audit System for maritime transport, which evaluates the degree that all kinds of port facilities installed temporarily or installed into navigational passages, and the installations and repair constructions of S.O.C. facilities affect ships' traffic safety, was introduced through Korea Maritime Safety Laws and went into effect from November 28th, 2009. This study was performed to introduce an outline including the concept and purpose of the Maritime Safety Audit(MSA) system for maritime transport and the technological guidelines for scientific and standardized enforcement, thereby analyzing the system.

  • The recent increase in size and speed of ships resulted in the existing maritime routes becoming narrow relative to the size of new ships. At the same time, as the improvement and optimization in marine transportation take place and the construction of structures in seas and harbor improvements pick up speed, there is an increasing probability of marine accidents. Due to these environmental changes, the need to professionally analyze the effect of marine structures on navigation arose to ensure safety of ships and a law was enacted and introduced for the Maritime Traffic Safety Audit (MTSA). In this study, a Qualitative assessment for verifying the effectiveness of MTSA was carried out with case analysis and analysis model in other similar audit scheme. It is expected that an analyzed result for effectiveness of MTSA will be a steppingstone for enhancing the MTSA and keeping maritime traffic safety as its own purpose.

  • The article assesses the level of navigation safety, in theoretical terms, defines the complexity of managing navigational risks in practice. The issues of assessing the navigational safety have been studied due to the importance and relevance of the issue in question, however, due to the great complexity of the problem under consideration, the article considers and indicates the directions for the development of the solution of the given direction, where, first of all, it became necessary to analyze the issue of assessing the levels of navigation risks when navigating vessels of various types in difficult navigation conditions.

  • The Judgement on a certain maritime accident accompany with punishment or recommendation to the examinee who was connected with that accident. It also gives quite a consequence to the Civil Trial relating with the maritime accident. In the Maritime Safety Tribunal System, the examinees can get assistance from Maritime Counselor. As it requires a lot of costs, it should be limited by economic condition of the examinees. In this Paper, with the consideration of the several kinds of Free Counsel System, Free Counsel System for Maritime Safety Tribunal was studied. The proposals are as follows; 1. To introduce the Mandatory Counselling and Court-designated Counselor System. The costs to be paid by government. 2. The same as above but the counselor to be designated among the staffs of the maritime organizations, then the costs to be paid by the organization which they belonged. 3. To establish Maritime Safety Tribunal Association which performs Monetary Assistance same as Korean Legal Aid Corporation.

  • The International Maritime Organization has determined that more than 80% of maritime accidents are caused by human error. A variety of methods have been considered to reduce maritime accidents caused by such human error. Navigators operate by observing surrounding maritime situations and analyzing information using various navigational devices. This study proposes a system to ensure safe navigation by assisting navigators through the delivery of maritime safety information (MSI) between land and sea. In the future, supplementing the system through long-term on-the-ship tests is necessary by defining MSI in relation to maritime service portfolio regions.

  • Republic of Korea is the first country which received international aids, h1s become a member of DAC, and recently has strengthened the international aids policy through ODA(Official Development Assistance). Korea ODA has focused on the area of education, social infrastructure, etc., but not on maritime affairs. However, since Korea has become a maritime country and a member of "A Group" council of IMO, the international shipping community including IMO strongly requests Korea to transfer Korea's maritime safety technology to developing countries for the sake of international maritime safety and marine environment protection. In this study, the direction of road map for effective transfer of maritime safety technology and marine environment protection technology was presented. The strategy for implementation of the suggested road map was proposed as well.
