NATIONAL TECHNICAL UNIVERSITY OF ATHENS SCHOOL OF NAVAL ARCHITECTURE AND MARINE ENGINEERING Subject: “Health and Safety during the travel of a cargo ship” Oleko Xenofon Thesis Supervisor: Ioannis K. Chatjigeorgiou, Tsaraklis Zaharias Committee Member: Nikolaos G. Tsouvalis Committee Member: Petros A. Caridis Athens, September 2016 p.1/140 Xenofon Oleko N.T.U.A, Division of maritime constructions This page has been left blank intentionally p.2/140 Xenofon Oleko N.T.U.A, Division of maritime constructions Abstract Nowadays Health and Safety is one of the most crucial priorities in every industry. The maritime industry has a perhaps the unique characteristic of involving physical risk. Between nations and organizations, there is a common need to create a safe and viable environment in sea transports and minimize any hazardous operations that can affect the next generations and the sustainability of our planet in global scale. This thesis is trying to point out common dangers as well as the procedures against hazards during the travel of a ship’s sail. Also includes the negative effects that they may have on humans and pollutant operations that have to be taken into consideration. Sea transports play a vital role since around 90% of the world’s trade is carried by the international shipping industry. Thus, further elaboration on the factors that contribute to such procedures should be taken into consideration in order to achieve great results. Human and environmental safety, are the two main pillars that are governing this field of studies and therefore they are the pivot point for all actions taking into account. -
