The ship safety evaluation and analysis on the multilayer model case study

Abstract

The article provides an in-depth analysis of the various methodologies used to assess the safety of seagoing vessels during their operational phase. Central to this analysis is the ‘layers of safety’ model, which identifies potential safety risks at different levels of the vessel. An extensive review of safety models widely used in the shipping industry is provided and the article emphasizes the crucial role of accurate data in their development. In addition, the article advocates the need for various methods to assess the probability of potential hazards, including fire hazards. The article highlights the need to comply with maritime safetyrules and regulations and makes recommendations aimed at improving safety methods and techniques. All these measures together contribute to the improvement of operational safety and reliability of maritime cargo transport.
