Strand 1 will harmonise risk management strategies, in order to improve the level of safety in the North Sea region

Safetyat sea

Harmonise risk analysis methods

and terminology

Compile and harmoniserisk management strategies

Traffic regulation, speed limits, tug boats, emergency response plans,…

Organisation of responsibility

Complex, sophisticated calculations

Different methods and terminology

Harmonised risk management strategies, methods and terminology will improve safety at sea

Demo A includes inventory, classification and risk assessment of oil transport in the North Sea regionMain deliverables:

Database of oil transports in the southern part of the North Sea

Classification system for crude oil – environmental behaviour and toxicity

Risk assessment studies – high risk areas

Demo B aims to combine AIS data with a tool for risk assessment of navigational safety

Main deliverables:

Gather and present AIS data

A fast time numerical integrator (prediction of collision and grounding)

Evaluate the risk reducing effect of aids to navigation

Demo C aims to harmonise methodology and guidelines for emergency preparedness arrangementsMain deliverables:

Rules for classification of sensitive areas

Rules for emergency preparedness arrangements (including depots and places of refugee)

Rules for operational decision making

Demo D aims to grow new knowledge on the risks associated with offshore wind farm developmentMain deliverables:

Extend existing risk models to include offshore wind farms and to include GIS-based decision making

Retrieve current and forecasted traffic density

Scenarios of growth in offshore wind farms

Demonstrate use of AIS in providing warnings to shippers

Develop planning and approval framework

Demo E aims to develop new Incident Management Systems (IMS) to support Marine Rescue Coordination Centres (MRCC)Main deliverables:

IMS prototype that combines data from different sources to identify dangerous situations and to make informed decisions on how to handle these situations

Demo F aims to grow knowledge about safety measures for small and high speed crafts in the North Sea areaMain deliverables:

Recommendations regarding organisation of safety and preparedness for small boats including leisure crafts

A real-time weather forecasting system for high speed crafts (AIS, GSM)

Educate the general public on quality shipping
