  • The Ministry of Maritime affairs and Fisheries embarked on Oct. 8, 1996, incorporating most of the previously fragmented maritime administrations into one single institution. But the maritime administrative functions related to safety and security missions have not yet been merged into a synergetic whole, with versatile multi-functional systems working so effectively that better services to the public might be excepted. Enhancing administrative capabilities to meet future demands with limited resources requires that these missions be integrated into one institution and an enterprising management system be adopted to overcome bureaupathologies, such as complacency and inertness of administration.

  • It is of great importance for any vessel under way especially in rough sea to be maneuvered safely with proper seakeeping performance. In this paper the author aims to develope a navigational safety evaluation system in rough sea by analysis and the theory of evaluating the seakeeping performance The author suggests a computer model of navigational safety evaluation system and examined the validity of the model by computer simulation.

  • As a sense of practical field, most researchers emphasize the importance of safety management to prevent marine accidents. The purpose of this paper is to develope a new safety evaluation method using Safety Index (SI) which is to measure the emotional feeling of navigation officer by traffic situations. In this study, the questionnaires with SI are used to investigate the degree of sensing levels of navigation officers according to the navigation situations. In addition, the traffic data obtained from AIS (Automatic Identification System) data are used to give actual situations in the questionnaire investigation. As results of questionaries investigations based upon the AIS data, it is shown that the Safety Index can be used as a criterion to determine the safety levels of ship navigating in a coastal areas.

  • A series of internatinoal standards in connection with safety of ships, safety management and operation of company, and pollution prevention at sea has been provided in ISM. And that Cheapter IX has been adopted in SOLAS with ISM as its annex gives this code mandatory effect On the eve of the implementation of ISM by IMO. Administrations, classifications, other maritime industry organizations as well as all shipping companies assessmentand evalution have been made inthis paper to thedevelopment of marine safety culture through the discussion of the general recognition of safety culture by IMO and her Contracting States, thenecessity for establishing unity of benefit and safety in a shipping company, the development of scientific safety managment systems and new reflections of safety culture in internation shipping industries.

An Empirical Study on the Difference in Perception of Introducing Smart Port between Port Operators and Users in Gwangyang Port (스마트항만 도입에 대한 항만 운영자와 이용자 간의 인식차이에 관한 실증연구 - 광양항을 중심으로 -)

  • Overseas advanced ports are promoting smartification, as well as full automation of the terminals surrounding container terminals. A smart port can be defined as a comprehensive concept that pursues increased operational efficiencies, maximization of profit, efficient use of energy, and construction of eco-friendly ports with the introduction of fourth-industrial-revolution technology, including port automation. However, Korea is making efforts to introduce fourth-industrial-revolution technology into ports, but indications are that they are somewhat insufficient compared to advanced ports abroad. Therefore, this study conducted a survey about operators and users of container terminals in Gwangyang Port by deriving the factors determining the introduction of smart ports, such as cost, service, time, safety, and environment, from previous studies. This study analyzed the factors determining the introduction of smart ports and moderating effects when the adjustment variables of operators and users were applied to the pros and cons. As a result of the analysis, it was found that port operators and users have a moderating effect on cost, time, safety, and environmental factors, but not on service factors. These results indicate that port operators try to reduce costs through efficient operation, time management, and by reducing safety accidents by building smart ports, but analysis showed that the negative effects of smart ports have affected port users. The results of this study were derived through a moderated regression analysis and suggested implications for introducing smart ports in the conclusion.

  • Port structures are one of the important infrastructure of the nation. To ensure safety and extend lifetime of the existing port structures, it is necessary to develop proper maintenance program. In this study, port inspection manual for pier type structure are developed. The flow of inspection program is designed and defect type for each component of wharf is classified. Also systematic method of rating and evaluation is developed together with conceptual design of port maintenance data base system.

  • A lot of efforts have been made to improve maritime safety by means of enhancing safety legislation and verifying the compliance thereof. However, with the development of mutual insurance, it is contributing more and more to better maritime safety. The P&I clubs to be discussed in the paper are now not only exercising controls and providing guidance in event of emergencies, but also keeping close and continuous monitoring over safety operations and conditions of those vessels entered, through their world-wide network and advanced communication, and by professional accident-handling teams. In view of this, it is necessary to discuss the roles of commercial shipping and the close linkage between it and onboard safety practices. The paper looks at first basic principles in maritime insurance, and then focuses on the rules and activities of P&I clubs and their implications upon shipboard operations.
