Natural environment, topographical conditions and marine traffic flows were investigated and questionnaire surveys were performed for the purpose of understanding the cause of marine accidents. The frequent cases of ships' dragging have happened at the anchorages of E-1, E-2 and E-3. The anchorage area is insufficient for the accommodation of a number of ships, the dolphins at the nearby piers are located near a narrow fairway. SBMs' are positioned too close to the fairway. It shows that many crossing marine traffic flows occur in all areas of the port. Marine casualties are concentrated mainly at No. 1 fairway, M1-M7 waters close to the dolphins and Gwanjeolgot, "E" anchorage and the waters close to the fairway "come and go" areas. The marine traffic flow is mainly caused by the ships' movement at the inter-port and most of the ships are the dangerous cargo carriers. And small ships like the tug-barge are moving disorderly in the ports. Furthermore, the fairway‘s layout is crossing each other. Questionnaire surveys of the users and experts shows that the LANBY that can distinguish the fairway of "come and go" ports is required.

VTS(Vessel Traffic Service) has been established in navigational waters to improve the safety and efficiency of navigation and to prevent marine accidents which could cause a large amount of damages to the marine environment and shipping industries. There have been several reports on analyzing the causes of marine accidents happened around Korean waters of jurisdiction, and those reports contributed not only to the enlargement of waters where VTS operation was needed and but also the construction of VTS system which was necessary to provide vessels navigating in the service waters with safety-related information. However, the researches for the role of VTS in marine transportation were not still enough to increase the safety of navigation and to decrease the number of accidents. In this paper, in view of the fact that VTS operation is closely connected with the accidents, we analyzed that what parts of VTS operation are involved deeply with the causes of marine accidents in Busan Port, and then proposed a method to improve its performance most effectively.

Ship-floating object accidents can lead not only to a delay in ship's operations, but also to large scale casualties. Hence, preventive measures are required to avoid them. This study analyzed the spatiotemporal aspects of such collisions based on the data on ship-floating object accidents in sea areas in the last five years, including the collisions in South Korea's territorial seas and exclusive economic zones. We also provide basic data for related research fields. To understand the distribution of the relative density of accidents involving floating objects, the sea area under analysis was visualized as a grid and a two-dimensional histogram was generated. A multinomial logistic regression model was used to analyze the effect of variables such as time of day and season on the collisions. The spatial analysis revealed that the collision density was highest for the areas extending from Geoje Island to Tongyeong, including Jinhae Bay, and that it was high near Jeongok Port in the West Sea and the northern part of Jeju Island. The temporal analysis revealed that the collisions occurred most frequently during the day (71.4%) and in autumn. Furthermore, the likelihood of collision with floating objects was much higher for professional fishing vessels, leisure vessels, and recreational fishing vessels than for cargo vessels during the day and in autumn. The results of this analysis can be used as primary data for the arrangement of Coast Guard vessels, rigid enforcement of regulations, removal of floating objects, and preparation of countermeasures involving preliminary removal of floating objects to prevent accidents by time and season.

Maritime pilots are always exposed to unpredictable risks present in the marine environment because they are boarding ships through pilot ladders or accommodation ladders at sea. Since the pilot plays an important role in securing the safety of a ship entering or departing from a port, an injury to the pilot substantially affects the overall safety of the ship. The purpose of this study is to analyze pilot injuries and predict accidents. For this purpose, pilot injury cases are analyzed and potential situations are identified through a survey. Pilot injuries are also predicted. The survey was analyzed using the IPA (Importance-Performance Analysis) methodology, and the binomial distribution and Poisson distribution were used to predict injury trends. As a result of the study, 316.8 nearmiss occurred per pilot injury, and if the current accident management system is maintained, the probability of pilot injury occurring within 3 months is 64.4%. Based on the research results, the need for a management system to prevent pilot injuries and reinforcement of maintenance and installation for pilot ladders was suggested.

At recently, Oil spill accident of large size oiler that happen domestic and outside the country is occured to social impact us as well as economical damage in sea environment. Also, because spread extent of pollution accident is reaching harbor, bay and close water areas, as necessity that traffic control ships are sea place. VTS is changing to concept that control space is magnified gradually. Our country is operated to 14 harbors which is control center. But abroad is operating coastal VTS that do main waterway and coastals to authority dimension. Therefore, necessity that traffic density of ship manages high coastals and ship traffic of waterway to our country is risen. This paper is execute sea traffic survey at Mokop sea areas and sea casualty occurs. It proposal that coastal VTS center field of most suitable and position of radar site.

해양사고를 야기하는 인적오류는 일반적으로 규정위반, 실수, 간과, 무기억 등 네 가지 요소로 구분되어 있다. 그러나 실제 해운회사의 사고기록을 조사해 보면, 이러한 네 가지 요소로 분류 불가능한 경우가 있다. 특히, 불합리한 작업의 양, 위기관리 능력의 부족, 오해, 불확실성의 이해 부족, 인적 오류의 미반영 등은 기존 네 가지 분류에 포함될 수 없는 것으로 조사되었다. 본 연구에서는 해양사고를 야기하는 해기사의 인적오류를 식별하고 분류하며 평가하기 위한 방법을 고찰하고, 새로운 분류 요소를 식별하였다. 실험결과, 새로운 식별 요소의 개발이 필요하고, 개발한 식별 요소가 해기사의 인적오류 평가에 유효함을 알았다.

The term "ordinary practice of seaman" is applied to hold the responsibility of those involved in marine accidents. However, there is a concern that the responsibilities of seamen may become unclear as the ordinary practices of the seamen are imposed. In addition, the responsibility for improvement is diluted by mentioning the ordinary practice of seaman when the navigation rules stipulated in the COLREGs is clearly violated. The maritime safety investigation and tribunal system thoroughly analyzes the causes of marine accidents to prevent the recurrence of similar accidents. As one cause that does not contribute to the prevention of the recurrence of similar accidents, it would be appropriate to exclude the term "ordinary practice of seaman" as far as possible. Accordingly, I reviewed the reason for the existence of the maritime safety investigation system and ways to improve the application of the term "ordinary practice of seaman," which is recognized as a customary and an unconventional navigation rule, by examining the theories on the ordinary practice of seaman and analyzing cases of court judgments and decisions in the Korea Maritime Safety Tribunal. I also proposed a modern interpretation on the responsibility for proper and purposeful application. In addition, from the viewpoint of preventing the recurrence of maritime accidents, it is suggested that the nounized term in Korea be replaced with the descriptive term.

In 2010 Manila Conference, the revised STCW (International Convention on Standards of Training, Certification and Watch-keeping for Seafarers) of IMO recalled that a large percentage of maritime casualties and pollution incidents are caused by human error. Therefore, education and training improvement will play important role to reduce maritime casualties. From this, we focus on improving safety during sailing through upgrading the education and training for Korean cadets by updating maritime education and training program. In terms of a maritime education program from some of the maritime universities in the world such as United States Merchant Maritime Academy(USMMA) Philippine Merchant Marine Academy(PMMA), are compared to the Maritime University in Korea. As a result, we suggest an effective education system.
