A survey is carried out for the future energy sources to be used for ship's propulsion and ship's machinery and operations. 44 global experts from Korea, America, Norway, Denmark, Japan and German who are currently working in the shipyard and offshore fields participated at the survey. Quantitative predications on the market shares of various energy sources, such as oil, LNG, fuel cell, wind energy, solar energy and nuclear energy are made. MPI (market prediction index) is considered as a quantitative index for easy comparison between future's energy sources used for ship's propulsion and operations. It is expected that the MPI of LNG becomes twofold in 2020 against 'before 2016'. It could be also said that hydrogen based fuel cell is expected to increase rapidly for the coming years unless a new alternative energy appears.

In this study, we investigated the activity data and basic data of the surface of the water within the ship to be operated by lakes and rivers inland. In this study previously, there was no survey activity data of Ferry and Cruise ship in Korea. In order to ensure the basic data and development of measures to reduce efficiently by local governments, these studies should be performed. Therefore, in the present study was survey the activity data such as cruising time and engine load factor and the specifications of the vessels. As a result, by analyzing the cruising pattern according to the area and the purpose of the cruise, to calculate the emissions of greenhouse gases.

To establish a vessel safety management system for improving the safety of vessel's traffic and preventing vessel's traffic accidents, the state of marine traffic in the Busan South Port was investigated and analyzed as preliminary survey of the countermeasures. As a result of the study, there are 1,158 vessels in a day, 48 vessels in an hour, and the maximum traffic is about 118 vessels between 16:00 and 17:00 hours everyday, which requires to establish and operate a traffic control system necessarily for ensuring vessel's traffic safety. Furthermore, passages of tanker, passenger ship, cargo vessel and government vessel showed to sail along main traffic lane to be obtained enough sea depth at the survey area. However, passages of fishing vessel and launch showed to sail freely at all survey area owing to outstanding maneuverability and a shallow draft. Some vessels of launch sailed along main traffic lane, but other vessels crossed to sail it. The passages to cross main traffic lane is higher the risk of collision. Therefore, safety measures are urgently needed for the operation of the Busan South Port management system and the prevention of marine pollution.

The Autonomous ships are equipped with a function to judge and navigate the sea conditions on their own, so the job of the ship officer who operates it changes. The educational curriculum to nurture ship officer with the ability to operate and manage autonomous ships must also be changed. This study aimed to develop the curriculum for training autonomous ship officer by using the Delphi survey method suitable for predicting the uncertain future. Among the current 61 subjects for training ship officer identified in the Delphi survey, 32 subjects with high importance should be maintained in the training for autonomous ship officer, and subjects with low importance should be abolished or integrated into other subjects. These subjects were collectively referred to as 'general courses'. The expert panel of the Delphi survey suggested 42 items as new subjects, with 18 items of 'high', 14 items of 'middle', and 10 items of 'low'. Through in-depth analysis of these items by experts, 27 subjects were adjusted and three courses were proposed : 1)'Basic course(10 courses)' for developing basic capabilities such as basic theories for understanding advanced technology and information applied to autonomous ships, 2)'Job course(10 courses)' for practical competency directly related to autonomous ship operation, 3)'Intensive course(7 subjects)' for fostering land remote operators of autonomous ships. Since the introduction and spread of autonomous ships will progress rapidly, research to develop and supplement autonomous ship pilot training courses should be continued by reflecting the level of autonomous navigation of autonomous ships.

The traffic volume will be increased and the traffic of larger vessel could be multiplied in the Pohang port by the opening of the Young-il new port in 2006. Unfortunately, however, potential danger factors to the safe navigation, disordered navigation and traffic congestion are still existing in the Pohang port and approaching waters. This paper describes the status of marine traffic flow and navigational characteristics based on the marine traffic survey using the exclusive software, and the results of marine traffic survey classify into ship's type, size and track history of passing ships through the statistical methods. Finally the examinations of marine traffic route, traffic flow and navigational characteristics are discussed. These results can be used for the best design of ship's routing at the Pohang waters.

Shin(2015) etc. published use of smart phones on the effect the use of smart phones released in the ship duty performed by survey of using smart phones Status and Usage in previous studies, soon as the survey provided this environment(36% on sailing) where you can use your smart phone from the ship, at the risk of officers using survey questionnaires were analyzed smart phones that use about twice the risk than before. In this study, maritime those who have experienced a period of sailors aboard a diagnostic test subjects Ship Handling Simulation analysis evaluation item of Maritime Traffic Admit, Proximity evaluation of a ship evaluation, by measuring the degree of danger that the subjective evaluation and control of the ship evaluation to evaluate the risk on navigation safety. Also indicated the risk of a smart phone quantitatively by measuring the time that the awareness of dangerous situation depending on using smart phone or not.

In the existing ship sales market, prices determined based on the prices of similar ship types that recently traded. ince the 2008 financial crisis, ship prices have fluctuated, and ship price criteria have become ever more necessary to the imminent value of the ship. Therefore, this research used the hedonic price model to estimate imminent values of ships. In this study, the influence on ship prices was analyzed by the value of each characteristic and an estimated functional formula was. Out of the four models suggested by the hedonic price model, an optimal model was selected with variance inflation factors and a stepwise selection. For this, the influence of determinants of ship prices was analyzed based on actually traded ships and characteristic data. The selected model s the Log-Line model; as a result of regression analysis, eight variables, including DWT, Age, Market Value, Short-Term Charter, Long-Term Charter, Enbloc, Special Survey Due and Builder were to affect the ship price model. This model is expected to be useful for objective and balanced ship price evaluation.

In this study, the writer embodies factors influencing on ship safety management by an empirical survey. In the empirical survey, the writer used a questionnaire. 1, 271 proper data was obtained from 4, 240 Korean seamen working in 152 domestic and 60 foreign merchant ships. Reliability was tested by Cronbach's Alpha and a conceptual validity by Factor Analysis. Hypotheses established in this study were tested by Correlation and Multiple Regression Analysis. Results of analysis are as follows: Firstly, three levels(i.e. planning, doing, and evaluation) of safety management and satisfaction level of shipboard life correlate significantly with level of ship safety management and between them(P<0.05) Secondly, satisfaction level of shipboard life, evaluation and planning levels of safety management influence significantly on level of ship safety management(P<0.05).
