A Study on the Collision between Fishing Vessel and non Fishing Vessel using Questionnaire Analysis

Abstract

The postal or group questionnaire survey was conducted to inquire into the cause of collision between fishing vessel and non-fishing vessel targeting fishing vessel personnel(FVP), non-NFVP and a person involved in a marine accident. As a result, we could verify the root cause of collision, a negligence of lookout which noted overwork for FVP and careless for non-FVP. The cause of collision by inappropriate avoid action was poor communications for FVP and non-FVP. To reduce collision, we need to be trained to take a sharp lookout, a radio communication by VHF and the collision avoidance actions by early and substantial action to keep well clear. The results are expected to contribute for the reduction of collision and victims.

Analysis of fishing vessel accidents with Bayesian network and Chi-square methods

“…Collision accidents are inevitable as a result of the inability to understand the target vessel's intention and as a result of the inability to make appropriate collision avoidance manoeuvre (violation of COLREG (The International Regulations for Preventing Collisions at Sea) rules 8 and 17) (Figure 2). Many studies that analyse collision accidents in the literature have emphasized the COLREG violation (Uğurlu et al, 2015) and the failure to detect the risk of collision (Belcher, 2002;Wang et al, 2005;Park et al, 2013;Kao and Chang, 2017). The failure to detect the target vessel is an indication that the lookout is improper.…”

A Study on the Risk Analysis based on the Trajectory of Fishing Vessels in the VTS Area

“…Previous studies on the marine accidents of fishing vessels, according to Park et al (2013), undertook questionnaire surveys of seamen on the role of human error in the collision. Lee et al (2013) considered the basic cause and preventive measures of fishing/non-fishing vessel collision accidents, which were reported by the Korean Maritime Safety Tribunal.…”
