Considering the full autonomous level is unlikely to be addressed shortly, remote control centre and Remote Operator (RO) will play a vital role in the MASS system. Although competence of watchkeeping at the ship’s bridge is inevitable for RO to avoid ship accidents caused by human errors, international requirements have not been introduced yet. This paper presents a way to develop the regulatory framework on the competence of RO based on the International Convention on Standards of Training, Certification and Watchkeeping for Seafarers (STCW) by exploring the concept of Situation Awareness (SA). Goal-Based Gap Analysis (GBGA) is constructed based on the human-behaviour model and the required information for SA. A case study through the mini focus group discussion with interviews by a total of three (3) veteran instructors of training ships is conducted utilising the information including the results of previous demonstration projects on the remote control.

  • Overview of Current Issues Notes
    Overview of Current Issues and Future Challenges in Maritime Safety Presentation by Mr. Koji Sekimizu, Director, Maritime Safety Division, International Maritime Organization (IMO) On 24 June at 3pm In Panel Segment 3: Experience and Challenges in Maritime Safety Slide 1 1 My role today is to provide an overview of current issues and future challenges in Maritime Safety in the short time available. 2 This is a challenge in view of: − wide ranging issues; − significant amount of work. 3 Today, I can only briefly touch upon: − Main issues and challenges; − Main achievements and future challenges. - 2 - Slide 2 1 Before I come to substantial Safety Issues, I would just like to share with you some basic statistics which reflect: − How international shipping has itself expanded and responding to the needs of globalization over the last 50 years which coincides with the period of IMO’s activities. 2 The volume of World Seaborne Trade in 1960 was 4,000 BTM and this has been expanded by 6 times to 27.5 BTM in 2004. 3 Fleet Capacity corresponded to this expansion and also increased by 6 times over the last 4 to 5 decades. 4 An interesting feature is that over this period the number of ships has increased only 2.5 times. The fact is that the size of ships has enlarged significantly. (large crude oil carrier/large container ship). - 3 - Slide 3 1 Let’s take a look at how ship registration changed: − In 1970: developed market economy represents 65% − In 2004: Open registries account for 45% 2 Supply of seafarers: − Nowadays, − OECD countries share 26% − While other countries provide three-quarters of the world’s seafarers: Workforce at sea.

The Committee was informed that the draft manual was in an advanced stage of development, but would benefit from a peer review in order to ensure its completeness and accuracy. 2 The Committee therefore endorsed the recommendation of the Secretariat that a correspondence group be formed, under the coordination of Canada and the United States, to make further improvements to the draft manual between MSC 88 and MSC 89, at which session the draft manual could be approved.
