Purpose of FSA � FSA is intended to be a tool for rule-making at IMO: - To make the decision process at IMO more rational, reduce ad-hoc proposals/implementation, give less room for politics - To provide a proactive, holistic approach, comprising technical as well as operational aspects � To generate information achieved in a way which is structured, systematic, comprehensive, objective, rational, auditable and documented � To demonstrate that suitable techniques have been applied and sufficient efforts have been made to identify hazards and to manage the associated risk 16 February 2006 Slide 3 Version
FSA compared to ‘current’ approach Formal Safety Assessment Current Approach Step 1 What might go wrong? Hazard identification What did go wrong? Step 2 Risk analysis How often, how likely? Frequencies, probabilities How bad? Consequences Risk = frequency x consequence Step 3 How can matters be Risk control options How can matters be improved? identification improved? Step 4 How much? Cost benefit evaluation How much better? Step 5 What actions are Recommendation What actions are worthwile to take? worthwhile to take? 16 February 2006 Slide 4 Version
FSA compared to ‘current’ approach Current Approach FSA - Risk Based Approach • proactive, trying to identify all • reactive, responding to accidents conceivable hazards - before they lead to accidents • continuous ammendment of regulations • regulations, consistent with safety • prescriptive regulations objectives • principle of technical equivalency • principle of safety equivalency • encompasses technical, human and • contains mainly technical organisational aspects requirements • cost of safety identified 16 February 2006 Slide 5 Version

Decision criteria used in FSA � Most ship types are in the ALARP area, but not ALARP - Implication: Cost Effectiveness is used as criteria � Three important decision criteria: � Gross Cost Of Averting a Fatality (GCAF) � GCAF = ∆ Cost/ ∆ Risk � Net Cost of Averting a Fatality (NCAF) � NCAF = ( ∆ Cost – ∆ Economic_Benefits)/ ∆ Risk � Cost of Averting a Ton of oil Spill (CATS) � CATS = ∆ Cost/ ∆ Risk_spill � Criteria: CAF = $3m, CATS=$60,000 16 February 2006 Slide 9 Version

FSA/ECDIS: Motivation and Background � Collisions and Groundings dominate accident statistics � FSA on Large Cruise Ship Navigation demonstrated that ECDIS is an extremely cost effective RCO with respect to Grounding - Justified by economic considerations alone - Justified by safety considerations alone � http://research.dnv.com/skj/FSALPS/FSA-LPS-NAV.htm � FSA ECDIS – project launched to investigate if ECDIS is cost-effective for other ship types (Norway, Denmark, Sweden, UK) � http://research.dnv.com/skj/FSA-ECDIS/ECDIS.htm 16 February 2006 Slide 11 Version
Objective and Scope of work � The objective is to carry out a Formal Safety Assessment, including cost effectiveness assessment of ECDIS for relevant vessel types (excl. High Speed Crafts). The cost effectiveness will be measured as Gross/Net CAF values. The following tasks have been carried out: � Define a set of representative vessel types and trades � General study on ECDIS and the effect of ECDIS � Update and extend the risk model used for Cruise ships to become valid for an extended set of vessel types. The detailed modeling has been carried out for two vessel types, and extended to other vessel types by more general considerations � Quantify risk reducing effect of ECDIS, costs of implementation and potential economic benefits to calculate GrossCAF and NetCAF values for the selected cases � General considerations of other vessel types and sizes 16 February 2006 Slide 12 Version
Method of work � Selection of representative Ship Types, Sizes and Trades � Modeling of exposure to potential grounding situations � Modeling of probability of grounding given exposure, and probability of fatalities given grounding using Bayesian Network models. � Bayesian Networks: - A set of nodes representing random variables, and edges or arcs representing direct probabilistic dependencies among them. 16 February 2006 Slide 13 Version

Ship Types � Tankers and bulk carriers represent about 65% of the world fleet measured in gross tonnage, thus this is a natural choice. � In addition, in order to establish a basis for drawing general conclusions on cargo ships, it was decided to include a ship type providing the combination of relatively low value of the ship itself; low value of its cargo as well as low pollution potential. The bulk carrier carrying coal was chosen for this purpose 16 February 2006 Slide 19 Version

RCO: ECDIS � ECDIS can replace nautical paper charts and publications to plan and display the ship’s route, plot and monitor positions throughout the intended voyage. � Continuously determining a vessel’s position in relation to land, charted objects, navigational aids and possible unseen hazards. � Possible to integrate ECDIS with both the radar system and Automatic Identification System (AIS). However, this study considers a basic ECDIS system as described in the Performance Standard for ECDIS of IMO, ref. /5/. � The main benefits of using ECDIS considered in this study include: - Liberate time for the navigators to focus on navigational tasks - Improved visual representation of fairway - More efficient updating of charts 16 February 2006 Slide 22 Version
ECDIS EFFECT � The effect of the RCO has been tested by comparing a vessel with ECDIS installed and in use, to a vessel without ECDIS. � Modeled effect of ECDIS (all ship types modeled) : 36 %, Meaning: � The number of Grounding incidents will be reduced by about 1/3 � The number of Grounding related Fatalities will be reduced by about 1/3 16 February 2006 Slide 23 Version
