Age-related problems especially corrosion and fatigue are normally suffered by weatherworn ships and aging offshore structures. The effect of corrosion is one of the important factors in the Common Structural Rule (CSR) guideline of the ship design based on a 20 or 25 years design life. The aim of this research is the clarification of the corrosion effect on ultimate strength of stiffened panels on various types of double hull oil tankers. In the case of ships, corrosion is a phenomenon caused by the ambient environment and it has different characteristics depending on the parts involved. Extensive research considering these characteristic have already done by previous researchers. Based on this data, the ultimate strength behavior of stiffened panels for four double hull oil tankers such as VLCC, Suezmax, Aframax, and Panamax classes are compared and analyzed. By considering hogging and sagging bending moments, the stiffened panels of the deck, inner bottom and outer bottom located far away from neutral axis of ship are assessed. The results of this paper will be useful in evaluating the ultimate strength of an oil tanker subjected to corrosion. These results will be an informative example to check the effect of ultimate strength of a stiffened panel according to corrosion addition from CSR for a given type of ship.

해양 기름오염 방제조치에 관한 연구의 일환으로 정량적 기초자료를 확보하기 위하여 최근 10년간(2003~2012년) 국내 연안에서 발생한 기름오염사고에 관한 통계자료를 수집하여 연간 기름오염사고 건수와 연간 기름 유출량을 사고 원인(Cause)별, 오염원(Source)별, 해역(Sea area)별로 분석하였다. (1) 사고 원인별로 분석한 결과, (1) 부주의로 인한 사고 건수(1,429건)와 해양사고로 인한 사고 건수(790건)가 각각 전체 건수(2,833건)의 50.4 %와 27.9 %를 차지하였다. 그리고 해가 거듭될수록 해양사고로 인한 사고 건수는 감소하는 경향을 보인 반면에 부주의로 인한 사고 건수는 증가하는 경향을 보였다. (2) 해양사고로 인한 유출량(17,400 kL)이 전체 기름 유출량(17,877 kL)의 97.3 %를 차지하였고 부주의로 인한 기름유출량(294 kL)이 1.7 %를 점유하였다. (2) 오염원별로 분석한 결과, (1) 어선에 의한 사고건수(1,210건)가 전체 건수(2,833건)의 42.7 %, 기타 선박에 의한 사고 건수(620건)가 21.9 %, 화물선에 의한 사고 건수(367건)가 13.0 %, 유조선에 의한 사고 건수(261건)가 9.2 %를 차지하였다. 해가 거듭될수록 어선에 의한 사고 건수는 감소하는 경향을 보였지만 여전히 높은 수치를 보인 반면에 화물선과 기타 선박에 의한 사고 건수는 완만하게 증가하는 경향을 보였고 유조선에 의한 사고 건수는 연간 13~37건으로 해마다 크게 변동하였다. (2) 유조선의 기름 유출량(15,488 kL)이 전체 기름 유출량(17,877 kL)의 86.7 %를, 기타 선박의 기름 유출량(898 kL)이 5.0 %를, 화물선의 기름 유출량(733 kL)이 4.1 %를, 어선의 기름 유출량(590 kL)이 3.3 %를 차지하였다. (3) 해역별로 분석한 결과, (1) 남해에서의 사고 건수(1,613건)와 기름 유출량(3,804 kL)은 전체 사고 건수의 56.9 %와 전체 기름 유출량의 21.3 %를, 서해에서의 사고 건수(700건)와 기름 유출량(13,501 kL)은 전체 사고 건수의 24.7 %와 전체 기름 유출량의 75.5 %를, 동해에서의 사고 건수(520건)와 기름 유출량(572 kL)은 전체 사고 건수의 18.2 %와 전체 기름 유출량의 3.2 %를 차지함으로써 사고 건수에서는 남해가 최고였고 기름 유출량에서는 2006년까지는 남해가 최고(1위)였으나 2007년 유조선 Hebei Spirit호 기름유출사고 이후에는 서해가 최고(1위)였으며, 동해에서의 사고 건수와 기름 유출량이 모두 남해나 서해보다 적은 값으로 나타났다. (2) 해가 거듭될수록 동해와 남해에서의 사고 건수와 기름 유출량이 모두 감소하는 경향을 보인 반면에 서해에서는 사고 건수가 연도별 증감의 변동 폭이 적어 거의 일정한 경향을 보였으며 기름 유출량은 연도별로 증감의 변동 폭이 컸다.

Numerous oil tanker losses have been reported and one of the possible causes of such casualties is caused by the structural failure of aging ship hulls in rough weather. In aging ships, corrosion and fatigue cracks are the two most important factors affecting structural safety and integrity. This research is about effect on hull girder ultimate strength behavior of double hull oil tanker according to corrosion after Part I: stiffened panel. Based on corrosion data of Part I (time-dependent corrosion wastage model and CSR corrosion model), when progressing corrosion of fourtypes of double hull oil tankers (VLCC, Suezmax, Aframax, and Panamax), the ultimate strength behavior of hull girder is compared and analyzed. In case of the ultimate strength behavior of hull girder, when occurring corrosion, the result under vertical and horizontal bending moment is analyzed. The effect of time-dependent corrosion wastage on the ultimate hull girder strength as well as the area, section modulus, and moment of inertia are also studied. The result of this research will be useful data to evaluate ultimate hull girder strength of corroded double hull oil tanker.

In past decades, a maximum standard vessel size for chemical tankers is not normally larger than 55,000 TDW due to the characteristic of chemical product shipment which is so variable but small quantity unlike single product carries such as crude oil tankers. These days, as demand of very large chemical tanker is rising due to the change of market trend of chemical product shipment, 75,000 TDW class chemical tanker has been developed. The newly developed vessel's structure has been designed based on CSR (Common Structural Rule) for double hull oil tankers (hereafter CSR) published by IACS (International Association of Classification Societies). However, due to the large difference from typical oil tankers, many items should be specially considered such as on deck transverse and corrugated bulkheads. In addition, two longitudinal bulkheads without upper stool have been constructed in order to maximise the number of cargo tanks and the volume of each cargo tanks. In this study, key word of the vessel has been briefly reviewed and the structural reliability of the proposed vessel has been investigated.

In the ship and offshore structure design, age-related problems such as corrosion damage, local denting, and fatigue damage are important factors to be considered in building a reliable structure as they have a significant influence on the residual structural capacity. In shipping, corrosion addition methods are widely adopted in structural design to prevent structural capacity degradation. The present study focuses on the historical trend of corrosion addition rules for ship structural design and investigates their effects on the ultimate strength performance such as hull girder and stiffened panel of double hull oil tankers. Three types of rules based on corrosion addition models, namely historic corrosion rules (pre-CSR), Common Structural Rules (CSR), and harmonised Common Structural Rules (CSR-H) are considered and compared with two other corrosion models namely UGS model, suggested by the Union of Greek Shipowners (UGS), and Time-Dependent Corrosion Wastage Model (TDCWM). To identify the general trend in the effects of corrosion damage on the ultimate longitudinal strength performance, the corrosion addition rules are applied to four representative sizes of double hull oil tankers namely Panamax, Aframax, Suezmax, and VLCC. The results are helpful in understanding the trend of corrosion additions for tanker structures.

This paper describes a development of Collision/grounding Strength Assessment System (COSAS) using simplified method. This method is formulated in closed-form equation by taking into account crushing caused by bulbous bow collision and cutting caused by forward speed grounding. To verify the accuracy of the developed system, some examples for test models of double side/bottom structure in collision/grounding situation are considered. This system might be useful for analysis of structural damage of oil tankers in collision/grounding.

The enactment of OPA90 (Oil Pollution Act of 1990) in the USA and the consequent moves by IMO(International Maritime Organization) to introduce new Regulations for the design of oil tankers led the oil transportation industry to undergo a period of big change. This resulted in the introduction of double hull tankers. This paper introduces the design for the 300, 000 DWT double hull VLCC of World-Wide Shipping Agency Pte Ltd. in Hong Kong, which is the first of this type constructed by Daewoo Shipbuilding & Heavy Machinery Ltd.(DSHM). The characteristics of the compartment and structural arrangement of this vessel are briefly described, and the scope of structural analysis is illustrated. In addition, the merits/demerits of different crosstie arrangements are described in the appendices.

With the effectuation of the amendment of MARPOL 73/78 on 5 April 2005, enforcement regulations of Marine Pollution Prevention Act were revised in domestic on 12 March 2005 that double hull structure was required to the small single bottom oil tankers under DWT(deadweight tonnage) 500 ton for the protection of the marine pollution casualties. The objective of this study is to develop the double bottom structure of small oil tanker under DWT 500 ton with superior crashworthiness and to establish its suitable standard to double bottom structure. The promoting strategy of this R&D is classified into the crashworthy structural analysis of small oil tankers using LS/DYNA3D code and the examination of their damage stabilities according to tonnage. It could be thought that the desirable inner bottom height should be above the B/7.5 and its minimum height 0.65m for the domestic small oil tanker under DWT 500ton.

This study compares the Residual ultimate longitudinal strength - grounding Damage index (R-D) diagrams produced by two analysis methods: the ALPS/HULL Intelligent Supersize Finite Element Method (ISFEM) and the design formula (modified Paik and Mansour) method - used to assess the safety of damaged ships. The comparison includes four types of double-hull oil tankers: Panamax, Aframax, Suezmax and VLCC. The R-D diagrams were calculated for a series of 50 grounding scenarios. The diagrams were efficiently sampled using the Latin Hypercube Sampling (LHS) technique and comprehensively analysed based on ship size. Finally, the two methods were compared by statistically analysing the differences between their grounding damage indices and ultimate longitudinal strength predictions. The findings provide a useful example of how to apply the ultimate longitudinal strength analysis method to grounded ships.
